Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 bag (8 ounces) kettle potato chips, such as Cape Cod
2 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
1 1/2 cups shredded Gouda (5 ounces)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons hot sauce, such as Frank's
1 thinly sliced jalapeno (1/4 cup)
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped chives (from 1 bunch)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment; spread chips out in a single layer. In a small saucepan, whisk together cream cheese and milk over medium heat until combined, 2 minutes. Whisk in blue cheese and 1/2 cup Gouda. Bring to a boil and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, 5 minutes. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, and hot sauce.
  • Drizzle cheese sauce evenly over chips, then sprinkle with remaining 1 cup Gouda. Bake until bubbly and crisp at edges, 5 to 7 minutes. Top with jalapeno, sour cream, and chives; serve.

Time 30m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium russet potato, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1/2 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon butter
salt
ground black pepper
4 slices thick-cut bacon
7 ounces kettle-cooked potato chips (1 bag)
1 cup grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese
2 -3 scallions, sliced
1/4 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Place potato cubes in a small saucepan. Add enough cold water to just cover, and a generous pinch of salt. Cover and cook over high heat until potatoes are fork tender.
  • Drain potatoes and return cubes to the hot pot (off heat). Let stand 5 minutes. Meanwhile, place milk and butter in another saucepan and heat until butter melts. Pass potatoes through a ricer (or mash with a potato masher), then stir in milk and butter. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Slice each bacon rasher in half lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1/4" pieces. Scatter pieces into a large skillet and cook over medium heat until almost crispy. Transfer with slotted spoon to a paper-towel lined plate.
  • Place potato chips on a large, oven-safe dish. Dollop with mashed potatoes, sprinkle with cheddar cheese then with scallions. Bake 10 minutes until hot and gooey. Drizzle with sour cream and serve hot.

ROCKCHALKCHICK'S BLUE CHEESE NACHOS



Rockchalkchick's Blue Cheese Nachos image

Are you tired of boring old nachos? Want to kick up your wine & cheese party a notch or two? Then give these nachos a try! This appetizer is an inspiration from a hotel bar my coworkers and I sometimes visit after a long day at work. You can also use gorgonzola and it tastes great too. I have only used original flavor kettle chips because I think using flavored may compete with the pungent blue cheese. Please note: I eyeball the ingredients so the below measurements are approximate. Measure to your personal taste. Servings are approximate. This appy pairs very nicely with a glass of red.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better your nachos will taste. Look for fresh, ripe vegetables and fruits, and use high-quality cheese and sour cream.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese. Nachos are all about the cheese, so don't be afraid to use plenty of it. A good rule of thumb is to use 1 cup of cheese per 8 ounces of chips.
  • Layer your nachos. To create the best flavor and texture, layer your nachos in the following order: chips, cheese, toppings, and then more cheese. This will help to ensure that every bite is loaded with flavor.
  • Bake your nachos. Baking your nachos is the best way to get them nice and crispy. Bake them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Top your nachos with your favorite toppings. There are endless possibilities when it comes to nacho toppings. Some popular options include: shredded chicken or beef, diced tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, black beans, corn, and guacamole.
