Loaded Nacho Bubble Up

Hey everyone - I stumbled across a new blog last week (Drizzle me Skinny!) and fell IN LOVE! 

Some of the best weight watchers recipes ever!

Last week I made her Loaded Nacho Bubble Up and it was so yummy. Everyone that knows me knows how much I love nachos - which we know are not usually healthy - so this was the perfect way to get the nacho taste and stay within my daily points.

  5. In a bowl mix your ground beef and spices together, add in your salsa and mix well.
  6. Dice your onion, tomato, jalapenos and green onion, place your chips in a small zip lock and crush them up.
  7. Use half of your ground beef mix and spread over biscuit, sprinkle half of your chips on top of meat, then layer half of your onion, tomato and jalapenos and ⅓ cup of your cheese. Repeat with remaining meat, chips, and veggies. Leave the green onion and remaining ⅓ cup of cheese to the side.
  8. Bake in oven for 25 minutes, remove and sprinkle remaining cheese and the green onion on top and return to oven for 15 minutes.

  11. *Please note if you can not find the 7.5oz dough packs (that come in a 4 value pack) use the regular sized biscuits, weigh out 7.5oz and then cut your dough into small pieces. Also if you don't want it spicy swap the jalapeno peppers for green peppers and use only ½ tsp red pepper flakes.
