Ingredients
- 1 bag tortilla chips
- 1 cup blue cheese, crumbled
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
- 1/4 cup bacon bits
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C), ensuring the rack is positioned in the center for even heating.
- Spread the tortilla chips in a single layer on a large baking sheet, making sure they are evenly distributed without overlapping.
- Sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese evenly across the tortilla chips, ensuring each chip gets a good coverage of cheese.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the blue cheese is melted and slightly golden around the edges.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the chips cool for 2-3 minutes to allow the cheese to set slightly.

- Dollop sour cream in small amounts across the top of the chips using a spoon.
- Sprinkle sliced green onions and bacon bits over the sour cream and chips for added flavor and texture.
- Serve immediately while the chips are still warm and the cheese is slightly melted.
Tips
- • For the best results, use high-quality blue cheese with a strong flavor profile • Make sure to spread chips in a single layer to ensure even melting of the cheese • Watch the chips carefully during baking to prevent burning • Use freshly cooked bacon bits for maximum flavor and crunch • Serve immediately after preparing to enjoy the perfect temperature and texture • For a spicier version, consider adding a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or hot sauce • If you prefer a lighter version, you can use reduced-fat sour cream and turkey bacon • Choose thick, sturdy tortilla chips that can hold the toppings without breaking
