Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups pulled pork
- 3/4 cup barbecue sauce divided
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 2 cups Mexican/fiesta blend shredded cheese
- 1-2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro leaves

- Sprinkle the cheese evenly out overtop of the nachos.
- Bake the nachos at 350° for 5-10 minutes, just until the cheese has melted.
- Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven, then sprinkle the red onion evenly out overtop.
- Drizzle the rest of the barbecue sauce over the nachos, then top with the cilantro leaves.
- Serve warm & enjoy!
Notes
- Don't like cilantro? No problem! Skip it!
- The barbecue sauce is a dominant flavor in this so make sure you are using a variety you like.
- You can use more cheese if you want. Is more cheese ever a bad thing?
