Variations

Try with your favourite variety of Doritos.
Make with leftover rotisserie chicken or a diced chicken.
Make a veggie version with black beans (recipe coming soon).
Use your favourite Cheese - Feta, Red Leicester.
Add your favourite Spices - Smoked Paprika, Garlic, Cayenne, Cumin are good options.
Toppings - Use your favourite toppings. Some of mine are listed above.

Tips

It is best to grate the Cheese yourself. Pre grated cheese has a coating which stops it from clumping together, this however also affects the way it melts.
It is better to have multiple layers then to try and have lots of toppings per layer.
Line the tray with greaseproof paper or foil.
Don’t be tempted to over bake otherwise the Doritos will darken at the edges and taste bitter.

Make Ahead

You can cook the meat ahead and use it when needed. Just reheat slightly first. The meat can be made up to 2 days ahead. Store in an airtight container.

Storage

It is best to eat Doritos Nachos as soon as they are made but they can be served up to 30 minutes after
