The Beer Snack Series # 3 - Tandoori Chicken Nacho Cups


Whilst you refill your glass
And plunge into these,
Hope for a crunch
And a ton of cheese.
The series may be over
But you can stay,
Guzzle, crunch, enjoy
Life should always be this way!”
The last of the trilogy! But don't hold your breath, I will come up with other exciting stuff soon. Till then, try these!
