I love simple recipes that have a lot of flavor. I mean, who doesn’t?! And as much as I enjoy making our meals for scratch, sometimes I just don’t have the time to invest in a made-from-scratch recipe. On those days, I like do things semi-homemade! A few nights ago, we had the missionaries from our church come over for dinner. I had forgotten that I had signed up for them to come, and quite frankly, I was in no mood for hosting anyone. Our house was a mess, I was feeling sick, and I just didn’t feel like cooking. It was a Friday night, and until I realized we were supposed to host the missionaries, I was planning on us going out to eat. I eventually got out of my funk and made dinner. For some reason, I thought the idea of potato nachos would be delicious. Of course, I had never had potato nachos, but for some reason, I couldn’t get the idea out of my head. We had recently purchased some Farm Rich Smokehouse Pulled Pork BBQ, and because it only takes a few minutes in the microwave to cook up, it seemed like the perfect topping. The Farm Rich Smokehouse BBQ line are authentic BBQ, and we LOVED the flavor of this pulled pork. It tastes just like it’s been cooked for hours, without all the work! It’s hand pulled (which, honestly, is always the hardest part for me), and it’s made with simple, clean ingredients. What more could you ask for?! While you could definitely use your own pulled pork recipe in this recipe, you can Get a $1.00 off coupon now in case you want to make this recipe even easier. I decided that it needed some kind of creamy sauce on top, but instead of using sour cream, I use Greek Yogurt and an avocado. It was the perfect topping. We also used mozzarella cheese, which I prefer over cheddar. The most labor intensive part of this recipe was slicing the potatoes and seasoning/cooking them…and if that doesn’t tell you how easy this recipe is, I don’t know what is. This is perfect for football and tailgating season, because they are so easy to make and even easier to clean up. I love that they are a nice twist on traditional nachos. Everyone really enjoyed this meal, and I am pretty sure we will be having it again in the near future!
