Chicken Nacho Scoops!

I made a happy food discovery this afternoon that I thought I would share!


I decided to make Chicken Nachos for the guys because I had some chicken that needed to be cooked...but it wasn't quite enough for an official chicken dish. So when that's the case...I usually chop it up and put it on a salad or sprinkle it on nachos...to make it go a little further.

I ALWAYS have the ingredients on hand for nachos. Which basically means I always have some sort of tortilla chips and some sort of cheese. Today was a bonus day because I also happened to have cilantro on hand AND had just made a batch of my FAVORITE Blender Salsa (that you can find here.)


The only thing different about today was I didn't have regular tortilla chips...but I DID have tortilla SCOOPS. I don't normally buy these, but I had been visiting my sister who also loves to make the Blender Salsa and she served it with the scoops, which was really good! So I bought some yesterday. And TODAY...they turned out to be the perfect vehicle for my chicken nachos!! I love a happy surprise in the kitchen. :-)

So I decided to snap a few pictures to share. There's really no "recipe" for these....more like a method. I think the pictures tell the story. (If they don't....feel free to ask.)   :-)











The perfect little bite. :-)

  1. Well I didn't make this (yet) but I just wanted to say, I've made a lot of things: laundry soap, dryer sheets, febreeze, laminate floor cleaner,body wash, and almond milk and I don't even think Ive read later than February.
    I am in recovery to, working on getting to my 5th year this year, one day at a time. Love your site.

  2. Do you bake it with the cilantro or do you put the cilantro on after its done? I assume you put it on afterwards, but I wanna make for certain. Thanks Jillee!
