Nachos covered in a silky smooth white queso sauce. Top these queso blanco nachos with any of your favorite nacho toppings for an epic party snack.
1/4 cup (packed) shredded white Cheddar cheese
3/4 cup (packed) shredded pepper jack cheese
1/2 tablespoon butter
1/2 tablespoon all purpose flour
1 clove of garlic, grated
1 and 1/4 cup light cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 bag corn chips (I used 1/2 of a bag of yellow corn chips and 1/2 of a bag of blue corn chips)
Nacho toppings I used
Crumbled queso fresco
Grated cotija
Pico de gallo
Diced red onion
1. Add your chips to a large platter. I lined a baking sheet with parchment paper and used that.
2. To a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the grated garlic. Cook for 1 minute, then whisk in the flour and cook for 30 seconds more.
3. Pour in the light cream and heat over medium to medium-low heat for 3 minutes to thicken. Add the salt.
4. Add in the Cheddar and pepper jack cheese a little at a time and whisk until completely smooth. This queso is slightly thicker, if you want it a bit thinner just add an additional 1/4 cup of the light cream.
5. Pour the queso blanco over the corn chips then add any nacho toppings you want. I kept mine simple and light with: queso fresco, cotija, pico de gallo, diced red onions.
