Infused Nachos Recipe: The Ultimate Game-Night Cannabis Snack

Whether it’s game night, a movie marathon, or a hangout with friends, there’s nothing better than a big, cheesy tray of nachos — unless they’re infused nachos. 🌿

At Orleans Joint, your go-to cannabis retailer in Orleans, Ontario, we love creative ways to enjoy cannabis beyond rolling a joint. This easy recipe will show you how to make delicious, THC or CBD-infused nachos using ingredients you can find right at home (plus a cannabis-infused oil or butter you can make or buy).


What You’ll Need

Ingredients:

  • 1 large bag of tortilla chips

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese

  • ½ cup black beans (optional)

  • ½ cup diced tomatoes

  • ¼ cup sliced jalapeños

  • ½ cup chopped red onions

  • 1 avocado or guacamole

  • Sour cream or crema for topping

  • Salsa or pico de gallo

Infusion Ingredient:

  • 1–2 tablespoons of cannabis-infused oil or butter

    • You can make your own by gently heating flower or concentrate with coconut or olive oil, or pick up ready-to-use infused oil from licensed producers.

    • Choose THC for an uplifting, euphoric experience, or CBD for a relaxing, non-intoxicating version.


Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Prepare your baking sheet or skillet — line it with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

  3. Layer your nachos: Spread a layer of chips, then add cheese, beans, onions, and jalapeños.

  4. Drizzle your infusion: Evenly drizzle your cannabis oil or melted cannabutter across the top layer of chips. A little goes a long way — keep your dosage in mind!

  5. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling.

  6. Top it off: Add fresh tomatoes, avocado, salsa, and a dollop of sour cream after baking.

  7. Serve and enjoy responsibly.


Dosage Tips

Start low and go slow — it’s easy to overdo it with edibles. If you’re using store-bought infused oil, check the THC or CBD concentration per teaspoon and divide evenly across servings. For homemade infusions, estimate potency conservatively (5–10 mg per serving is a good start).

Always remind guests that infused foods can take 30–90 minutes to kick in.
