Ingredients
  

8 slices of your choice of bread (white, whole wheat, or sourdough)

4 tablespoons softened butter

8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, sliced

4 ounces pepper jack cheese, sliced

1 cup tortilla chips, crushed

1 tablespoon taco seasoning

1/2 cup diced tomatoes (fresh or canned)

1/2 cup shredded lettuce

1/4 cup sliced jalapeños (optional)

1/4 cup sour cream (for serving)

Salsa (for serving)

Instructions
 

Prep the Bread: Begin by preheating your grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Take your softened butter and spread a generous layer on one side of each bread slice. This buttered side will create a crispy, golden crust when grilled.

    Assemble the Sandwiches: On a clean surface, place one slice of bread with the buttered side facing down. Layer two slices of sharp cheddar cheese, followed by one slice of pepper jack cheese. Sprinkle a tablespoon of crushed tortilla chips over the cheese for a crunchy texture. Add a dash of taco seasoning, diced tomatoes, and jalapeños if desired. Finish the stack with two more slices of cheese before topping with another slice of bread (buttered side facing up).

      Grill the Sliders: Carefully place the assembled sandwiches onto the preheated grill pan or skillet. Allow them to cook undisturbed for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is a rich golden brown and the cheese begins to melt. Using a spatula, gently flip the sandwiches and grill for an additional 3-4 minutes on the opposite side until perfectly golden and melted.

        Cut into Sliders: Once both sides are beautifully toasted and the cheese is ooey-gooey, remove the sandwiches from the heat. Let them cool for a minute, then cut each sandwich into quarters to create delightful mini sliders.

          Add Toppings: Arrange the mini grilled cheese nacho sliders on a serving platter. Garnish each slider with a handful of fresh shredded lettuce and a dollop of sour cream. For an extra flavor burst, drizzle with salsa if you like.

            Serve Hot: Serve these Mini Grilled Cheese Nacho Sliders warm, accompanied by additional crushed tortilla chips for that delightful crunch. Enjoy every cheesy bite!
