The best thing about this Game Day Buffalo Chicken Nachos recipe is the ingredients are easily prepped. These guys require no prep, so they’re ready to go. I chose a thicker tortilla chip to not become soggy from all the cheese and hot sauce. I didn’t use any cream cheese in this recipe because the Monterey Jack was creamy enough on its own and wonderfully complimented Frank’s Hot Sauce.
