Black Bean Chicken Nachos image

The best chicken nachos can be found at Zeppelins in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Zeppelins' famous dish inspired me to make my own nachos-but with the added convenience of a slow cooker. I always use cilantro because it is economical and makes the dish pop with flavor. -Natalie Hess, Pennsville, New Jersey

Overall, I thought these nachos were pretty good. I would definitely make them again, but I would make a few changes to the recipe.

These nachos were a bit too bland for me. I would recommend adding more spices and seasonings next time.

I found these nachos to be a bit too greasy. I would recommend using less cheese and oil next time.

The salsa and guacamole in these nachos add a nice pop of flavor. They help to balance out the richness of the cheese and chicken.

The cheese in these nachos is melted to perfection. It's gooey and stretchy, just the way I like it.
