What do you get when you cross potato skins with nachos? Potachos! The best of both worlds, this tasty invention uses the base of nachos (crunchy potato chips) with the topping of potato skins (cheddar cheese, bacon bits, sour cream, and green onions).
The recipe is simple and like all nacho recipes, easily adaptable to your personal liking. These fabulously named (seriously say potachos out loud, it's fun!) nachos make a wonderful appetizer for a baseball watching party. For the recipe, read more.
Original recipe from PartySugar
Ingredients
1 small bag potato chips, about 2-3 cups of chips*
salt, pepper
3/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
4-6 slices cooked bacon, chopped
2 green onions, dark green and white ends removed, minced
sour cream for serving
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Cover a cookie sheet with foil. Scatter the potato chips over the foil, forming a single layer. Season chips with salt and pepper.
- Evenly sprinkle half of the cheese over the chips, being careful to make sure each chip has some cheese.
- Top the cheese with half of the bacon bits, once again evenly distributing so each bite has bacon.
- Cover with another layer of chips, cheese, and bacon.
- Bake in the oven until cheese is melted, chips are crispy, and bacon is heated through, about 12-15 minutes.
- Remove from oven and evenly top with the green onions. Dollop a heaping tablespoon on the middle.
- Enjoy immediately with more sour cream for serving, if desired.
Serves 2-3.
*I used Kettle brand unsalted potato chips.

Why hasn't anyone made these for me before?! This sounds SUPER YUMMY! I think the 4th
might get a little potacho-y! 
3I'm not sure that potato chips could stand up to the oozy moisture of nacho toppings. Corn chips have the structural integrity, but I fear that potato chips would just get soggy.
4Some would be okay. Kettle Chips are pretty thick. Mrs. Vickie's might hold up too. Gah, these look unbelievable.

7It is fun to say - like chupacabra. I love fun words; especially with food.
8I would also like to put forth the name Nachatos. Either way...I've been thinking about them for hours!
9This would be even more delish if you used home made chips....mmmm
10Hey you should patten that name.
11That is awesome!!!
12Yum yum!!!! My mouth is watering!
13kiddylnd: Nachatos is a great name! Equally as fun to say.
cravinsugar: I totally agree. Reason #465 why I need a mandoline: Potachos.
14That's best nacho recipe I've seen yet. Potacho...yep it's fun to say every time
15NG. I'm a huge nacho fan. (The best nachos are made with lime-flavored chips). Potato chips are too thin and too easily soggied by moisture.
16yum, i love any form of nachos!
17We make something similar and they're soooo good. I'll have to try this recipe, too!
18There's a restaurant near my house that serves up tater tachos - tater tot nachos. Sooooo good, and also wonderfully fun to say!

22these look so fabulous. and so yummy. thanks for the recipe!
23While this looks yummy, I just prefer a plain dish of tortilla(sp?) chips and cheese dip warmed up and lightly drizzled over. That's fine for me
