Nachos

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk, warmed
8-10 ounces of sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
Tortilla chips
Jalapeno peppers
Beef, chicken, or pork (if desired)

Methods:
Melt the butter over medium-low heat in a saucepan.
Whisk in the flour one tablespoon at a time to avoid clumping.
Add the milk after the roux is smooth. Mix until the sauce has an even consistency.
Add the cheese and salt. After the cheese has melted, turn the burner to low, and allow the sauce to simmer for 10 mins.
Spread 1/2 of a bag of tortilla chips on to a large platter. Bake chips at 300 for about 10 mins.
Remove the chips from the oven and spread the cheese evenly over them. Enjoy.
