Pork Rind Nachos
Ingredients
- 4 oz about 113g pork rinds

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- In a pan, cook the ground beef until browned. Season with a pinch of salt to taste. Optionally, mix the cooked beef with cream cheese for added creaminess.
- Sprinkle the cooked ground beef evenly over the pork rinds.
- Top with shredded cheese, ensuring an even distribution over the beef and pork rinds.
