My hand is raised. I’m a huge chips and dips and nachos fan.
If you could see my shopping list, you would laugh. Chips and dips and nachos ingredients.
Chips & dips are my FAVE!! I love how quick and easy this recipe is – pinned to my dinner ideas board! Can’t wait to try it!
this looks so good! I love anything mexican and with chicken and cheese.
Just a question…why the butter in the sour cream?
It’s a preference for me to melt them together and then spread it over the nachos evenly and easily. You don’t have to do it that way, but that’s how I like to do it. 🙂
Tried this tonight! It was great except the butter exploded in the microwave after I added the sour cream. My hubby didn’t like the chips because they seemed soggy but it was delish! We add some fire roasted corn. 🙂
Oh no, butter explosions are NO FUN! 😉 I am glad you liked it!
