White Chicken Nachos Recipe
White Chicken Nachos!
Looking for a great appetizer or even party food this is delicious and easy to serve? This is hands down my favorite nacho dish, I plan meals around how I can include this awesome dish. It goes over great with my herd of kids too! It's quite simple & you can make double batches to reheat later when your feeling a bit lazy about cooking.

Instructions
- Pour 1 cup milk into a heavy saucepan (see note) set over medium-low heat. Bring to about 170

Nom nom! I'd probably used roasted rather than boiled chicken in mine and experiment with different cheeses. I love playing with recipes. Thanks so much for sharing!
