Making Late Night Snacks: Unique Twist on the Matzo Ball by Sarah Sparks

Making Late Night Snacks out of Matzo Balls

If you follow this blog, you know that I attempted to make Matzo Balls for my grandmother. I got a pretty decent score for my first time. 

Ended up throwing on some hot sauce and hot peppers.

Let's fast forward to right now.

As I rummaged through the fridge full of random perishables. I spotted the Tupperware container filled with matzo balls - my second attempt. I had no more broth, so Matzo Ball Soup was out. Hmmm. What do I do? My eyes kept landing on the salsa and sour cream.

"I do love an excuse to eat sour cream," I stated quietly out loud (mind you, my grandmother is sleeping).

I pulled the three items out and started to prepare a Jewish version of nachos. Sliced the balls and layered the other two ingredients on top. I, then, sat at the dining table and tried this outlandish combination.

The toppings masked most of the flavor of the matzo ball slices which served as a decent substitute for chips.

Matzo Ball Nachos

- Leftover Matzo Balls, sliced (used this recipe minus two eggs - still not perfect)
- Salsa
- Sour Cream
- Hot Sauce (optional)
- Pickled Hot Peppers, coarsely chopped (optional)

Heat matzo balls. Layer ingredients in order of mention.
