Warm, crispy smashed potatoes are dressed with Greek goddess aioli, tomato-cucumber-feta ‘salsa’ and coconut tzatziki subs in for sour cream.

Nachos, but make em’ Greek! Try Nixon Farm’s rif on the smash potato craze– a Greek Meze Meets Mexican Nachos. Mamma Mia Señorita, it’s sooooo good!

In this Greek-Mexican fusion plate:

Guacamole -> Greek Goddess Aioli

Okay. So both guac and this bold sauce are green… But stay with me! The incredibly vibrant and bold Greek Goddess Aioli is adorned with authentic Greek herbs and is made with cashews, making it a near drinkable dressing that is amazing on salads. We drizzled the leftover Greek Goddess Dressing on our potato soup the next day, and it was delightful.

Sour Cream -> Garlicky Tzatziki

Coconut yogurt, cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, and dill are combined to make an incredibly versatile greek sour cream.

Salsa -> Tomato- Cucumber Salad With Tangy Feta

Our ‘Greek Salsa’ is crunchy and refreshing; dill, tangy Violife feta and a pop of fresh lemon to bring it all together.
