Loaded Skillet Nachos – Layers of tortilla chips, black beans, white cheese sauce, shredded Pepperjack, lettuce, and pico make this the ultimate snack or dinner idea!

I’ve decided June was a month of nachos. In all of our travels, and boy do I feel like we were traveling a lot, I had my fair share of nachos. So once we got home, I had to make my own version of Loaded Skillet Nachos!

This version right here reminds me of the restaurant, Paradiso 37 in Disney Springs. There were so many good cheesy layers, and I pretty much decided right then that I would have to recreate them at home! And I pretty much live for skillet recipes like this one and this one and this one.to

Ingredients for Loaded Skillet Nachos:

chopped tomato
chopped red onion
fresh chopped cilantro
lime juice
shredded lettuce
tortilla chips
canned black beans
shredded PepperJack cheese
sour cream/guacamole
evaporated milk
cornstarch
White American Cheese
chili powder
cumin
salt and pepper

I made these meatless, but you could totally add some taco ground beef if you’d like. I just think these make a great snack! Give me a margarita and I’m all good!

Make the cheese sauce: Add evaporated milk to a small saucepan and heat over medium heat. Whisk in cornstarch. Once it reaches a simmer, whisk in white American cheese squares in batches. Continue whisking constantly and then adding in more cheese as it melts. Once cheese is melted, stir in chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Turn off heat.

Place under broiler for about 3 minutes watching it carefully so it doesn't burn. Remove from oven and top with shredded lettuce, and tomato and onion mixture.
Top with sour cream and guacamole, if desired.

Notes

*I like to use deli-style white american cheese slices.

** Add in layers of taco ground beef or grilled chicken if you'd like.
