Recipe Notes
- Store any keto nachos leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days (without avocado). Heat well before eating (without pico de gallo and avocado)!
- Do not freeze!
- You can eat chicken nachos by themselves (low-carb option) or crush some keto tortilla chips on top for added crunch.
- If desired, use heated leftovers as a filling for low-carb sandwiches and tacos, or to eat with keto pasta.
