Your favorite cheesy potato casserole gets an upgrade with shredded chicken and Mexican flavors in these chicken nacho cheesy potatoes. This recipe was originally published on Tastes of Lizzy T.

Chicken Nacho Cheesy Potatoes

Cheesy potatoes are my kryptonite. I’ve never been a huge fan of comparing food to drugs. The whole naming foods with “crack” in front of it just bothers me for some reason. Since my blog has some super hero references, including the Wonder Woman mixer, I like the idea of comparing these Chicken Nacho Cheesy Potatoes to kryptonite. They are a weakness, not an addiction.

Watch how to make Chicken Nacho Cheesy Potatoes:

Anyway cheesy potatoes and I have a long history. Way back before our kids were born (so over 12 years ago) my husband and I were busy being youth counselors at our church. Back then in addition to the mission trips and weekly meetings we also experienced numerous holiday parties with ornament exchanges among our fellow counselors and lots of delicious, potluck-type food. 

Chicken Nacho Cheesy Potatoes

Cheesy potatoes were always popular and ever since I got the recipe from the Mom of a youth counselor I’ve been making them myself. In recent years with the start of my blog I’ve remade them for the slow cooker. I like being able to transport them to events and keep them warm.

Chicken Nacho Cheesy Potatoes

Then I decided that they really should be upgraded to a main dish my family can enjoy on occasion. With shredded chicken and Mexican flavors that we are all so fond of. Seriously I think my family of four could eat some version of Mexican every night for dinner and be perfectly content. So here you go – Chicken Nacho Cheesy Potatoes. They’ll make you weak in the knees.

    This looks so comforting. We have snow in the UK at the moment so this would be perfect.
