Chicken Nachos
Updated: Sep 27, 2020
Nachos on a Saturday night.. That sounds about right! Like I said before, I will never be the type of person to eat dull because I'm on a diet. This was the first healthy alternative meal I ate when I started eating clean. These nachos are gonna be extra light to eat, and very tasteful. Whenever I eat them, im always surprised at how good they are (its probably especially cause of the Pico De Gallo haha).
I'm really not a fan of the Canned nacho salsa, so for me eating is with pico just feels too fresh!
Have a try tonight!

If your nachos aren’t hot enough for the cheese to melt pop it in the microwave enough time to make your cheese melt.
And if you love the hot and cold contrast in nachos, after putting it in the microwave, add more Pico de Gallo!
