How to Eat Loaded Keto Nacho Chips
One of the things that I love about this recipe is the options that it allows. Want to switch up the recipe? Try using your favorite cheese for a change in flavors and variation.
Make sure to note that not all cheeses are created equally. Using hard cheese in this recipe will allow for a crispy chip in the end, so avoid using soft cheese.
Here’s a list of hard cheese that would be perfect in this recipe:
- Colby Jack
- Parmesan
- Gouda
- Asiago
- Monterey Jack
- Provolone
For a little extra kick, you can also try adding a small amount of spice to the top of your cheese before melting. Paprika, cumin, and cayenne are all great options! Feel free to experiment with your favorite herbs and spices!
Besides using these flavorful chips for dipping, I also like to use them as mini appetizers. Cutting the chips into squares after baking allows for plenty of topping space.
Some of my favorite combos are pico de gallo and bacon, smashed avocado with chiles, pepperoni, or just olives! The topping options are really only limited to your own preferences. (Don’t forget the homemade guac or salsa to go with these chips.)
