Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 serving keto tortilla chips choose a low-carb brand or make your own
  • 1-2 cups shredded cheese blend like cheddar and Monterey Jack
  • 1 cup salsa sugar-free, fresh or store-bought
  • 0.5 cup guacamole creamy and rich
  • 0.5 cup cheese sauce can be homemade with cream, cheese, and spices
  • 1 large tomato diced
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 1 large green bell pepper chopped
  • 0.5 cup sour cream adds tang and creaminess

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Shred 1 to 2 cups of your favorite cheese blend. Dice the large tomato, finely chop the small onion, and chop the large green bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. If making cheese sauce, whisk cream, shredded cheese, and seasoning in a small saucepan over low heat until smooth.

Assembly and Cooking

  • Spread the keto tortilla chips evenly on a baking sheet or oven-safe pan in a single layer.
  • Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly over the chips. Add chopped onion, bell pepper, and diced tomato. Top with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 8 to 10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Remove from oven and drizzle warm cheese sauce over the nachos. Add dollops of guacamole and sour cream, then spoon on the salsa. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use a blend of cheeses for better meltability and flavor complexity.
  • Layer cheese directly on chips before wetter toppings to keep chips crispy.
  • Prepare toppings ahead and store in airtight containers for up to 2 days.
  • Leftover nachos do not reheat well; save extra toppings for another batch of chips.
  • Add cooked ground beef, shredded chicken, or turkey sausage for a protein boost.
