Beef Chile Verde Nachos
My cute hubby called me from work and told me that he had just signed up to bring a main dish for the company pot luck dinner. Main dishes can be so hard because you have to get the dish to the party without falling apart and then finding something that will feed so many people!
I love challenges! We decided on these incredible nachos. They were a big hit at the party! Mike told me that everyone was trying to get the last piece of meat out of the slow cooker because the meat was so tender.
The great thing about nachos is that everyone can make their own the way they like.

Without question, this recipe is right up our alley. I cannot wait to try it especially since it's a new recipe for the slow cooker.
These look so flavorful and delicious. I love the idea 🙂
