Haystacks are fun, filing, and flexible, depending on what toppings you have around the kitchen. A haystack is a meal in itself, with no side dishes necessary.

A lot of the sodium in this is from the chips and canned beans. It's easier to make with purchased items, but if you can make them from scratch, you'll save a lot on the sodium and fat.
A tip for using canned products that have sodium...rinsing and draining canned beans cuts about 40% of the sodium.
This recipe works great with rice or quinoa instead of chips if you're not a chip eater. I love corn chips, but I like to make my own from toasting corn tortillas in the oven.

When did you start a food blog? I totally missed it! I'm following now though! I made those sausage balls on Christmas this year. First time I ever made them and they were so good :)
