Servings servings

1 13-ounce bag restaurant style tortilla chips
1 small yellow onion chopped
1 cup sliced sweet mini peppers seed removed and sliced
14 ounces smoked sausage I used skinless smoked sausage
1/2 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 cups beer cheese sauce I used The Chunky Chef's Creamy Beer Cheese Sauce recipe

For the beer cheese sauce, I used a recipe from, The Chunky Chef. I used Yuengling for the beer.
Chop the smoked sausage, peppers, and onions.
In a pan heat up 1 tsp olive oil and butter, then saute the sausage, peppers, and onions until the peppers and onions are cooked, around 6-8 minutes.
On a sheet pan spread out the tortilla chips. Add the sausage and peppers over the top.
Finally, pour the beer cheese sauce over the top. Serve immediately.

Only make this recipe if you are going to eat it immediately because the beer cheese can make the tortilla chips soggy.
If you are not making it immediately, you could set the ingredients in separate containers and let the guest build the nachos and pour the sauce on their own.
To store: Add leftovers to a covered container and refrigerate. If you think there will be leftovers I suggest not pouring the beer cheese over the top and keeping it in a separate container to keep it from making the nachos soggy. Reheat in the oven or air fryer at 400 degrees for 10 minutes.
