Rockchalkchick's Blue Cheese Nachos

"Are you tired of boring old nachos? Want to kick up your wine & cheese party a notch or two? Then give these nachos a try! This appetizer is an inspiration from a hotel bar my coworkers and I sometimes visit after a long day at work. You can also use gorgonzola and it tastes great too. I have only used original flavor kettle chips because I think using flavored may compete with the pungent blue cheese. Please note: I eyeball the ingredients so the below measurements are approximate. Measure to your personal taste. Servings are approximate. This appy pairs very nicely with a glass of red."

  1. This recipe really suprised me with how good it was! I have not made, but was lucky enough to have the chef herself serve this during the holidays and I'll definitely be making this sometime myself. I like blue cheese, but DH isn't so much a fan, but we both agreed that the ingredients are really nicely balanced. Between the crunch of the kettle chip (who doesn't like kettle chips?!), the creamy tang of the cheese and the pop of the green onions and tomato, it really hit the spot. It seems really simple to make too and like you could really play around with different types of cheeses and creamy dressings as well. Thanks for FINALLY posting RockChalk (go KU!).

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Lawrence, KS, home of the Kansas Jayhawks! RockChalk! Lawrence is such a diverse town with a wide variety of locally owned restaurants. I love trying them and learning more about food. I'm an RN by trade but in my spare time, I love to read, spend time with my family & friends, cook/bake and run in the woods with my dogs, Jack and Daffodil. I also love volunteer work to include volunteering at a culinary center near my home. I have learned so much there--not just about cooking but about entertaining, too. I've been a member of Recipezaar for a few years now. It is so much fun! I love trying new recipes and interacting with interesting chefs. This is a great forum for food, friendship & fun. <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/SaltPepperSwap.jpg">
