This is the second meal I made with my 5-Ingredient Pulled Pork that I made last week. These Pulled Pork Nachos can be an amazing appetizer for guests or it can be a main course meal for a lighter dinner.
When I was at Trader Joe's last week I grabbed a bag of the Sweet Potato Tortilla Chips. If you can get your hands on these, I highly recommend them! These were perfect for our Pulled Pork Nachos.
I found the recipe for the nachos on myrecipes.com, but I adapted it to suit my own taste and to accomodate what I did have in my pantry. I really wanted to make the Queso Blanco Dip from Marion, of Life Tastes Good, but it was a weeknight and I'm short on time during the week. So, I just took the easy way out and grabbed a jar of queso dip at the store. I am going to try Marion's recipe soon though, I swear I am!
We will definitely have these again. I loved everything about them! Grumpy had no problem eating these either and such a great easy throw together meal for a weeknight!
