Queso is a creamy white cheesy sauce. Use whatever Mexican or cheese you like to make the sauce in this Queso Nachos Recipe. Havarti is a easy melting cheese. Suzy likes shredded habanero or pepper jack for this recipe. You can use your favorite chips. Dorito Nacho chips are fun and tasty but whatever tortilla chip you prefer will work. This recipe also is the inspiration for the Nacho Totchos recipe
Queso Nachos
On KFYR-TV North Dakota Today morning show #ChefTrevor in Bismarck/Mandan North Dakota showed how he makes a #queso #nachos using #nachocheese Doritos. They looked so yummy! They inspired Suzy to make her version with what she had on hand. She didn’t have any cream left so she substituted 1/2 cup sour cream diluted with water.
