Say hello to the best nachos EVER! Loaded with perfectly tender BBQ chicken bites, two types of cheeses, tomatoes, onion, sour cream, cilantro and potato chips! Guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser. I PROMISE!

The weather is getting warmer, the flip flops are coming out, and we’re all dusting off those shorts for the summer.

Except. Well, living in LA, that’s basically my outfit year-round.

But for those of you not living in LA, summer is right around the corner. Which means we’re gearing up for pool parties and barbecues all around for those summer get-togethers.

That’s where I have you guys completely covered.

Say hello to the best crowd-pleasing get-together appetizer with the easiest potato chip nachos.

Yes, you totally read that correctly. POTATO. CHIP. NACHOS. using none other than LAY’S Kettle Cooked Original Potato Chips. Perfectly crunchy and salty in every way possible.

Smothered and covered with the perfect BBQ chicken bites with all that melted cheesy goodness.

And don’t forget those toppings – tomatoes, onion, sour cream and cilantro.

Although, personally, I just need the cheese, the BBQ chicken and the potato chips. Everything else may just get in the way.

Side note. Anyone can make this. And I mean anyone. It’s basically fool-proof.
