Nachos have always been one of my favorite snacks! While nachos are usually keto-friendly, I still made some adjustments to limit the amount of carbs in this snack.
I love pork rinds as they are a 0g carb snack. I incorporate these a ton in my keto recipes, so when I thought what I was going to pair with these nachos, I immediately thought pork rinds! These go well with the ground beef, onion, avocado, and jalapeno peppers!
