Cobb Salad Nachos

Tortilla chips topped with cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, diced tomatoes, avocado and grilled chicken.

This recipe got started recently as I was staring at the menu of one of my favorite local dives and trying to decide between nachos and Cobb salad. Normally this is an easy decision for me since Cobb salad is one of my favorites. But I had Cinco de Mayo nachos on the brain.

Tortilla chips topped with cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, diced tomatoes, avocado and grilled chicken.

Back home after the meal (I chose the salad), I was still thinking about the choice and wondering why the two dishes couldn't be combined. Well, of course they can. And it's always fun to come up with new ideas for nachos.

Most of the Cobb salad ingredients are pretty much at home in a Mexican dish anyway with the exception of the blue cheese. I swapped it out in favor of a good melty cheddar and served this dish with sour cream on the side. It's great party food but the grilled chicken also makes it perfect for lunch or dinner. And it's definitely worthy of a Cinco de Mayo celebration...served with a margarita. Enjoy!
