Earlier this year, we met some folks from the American Ostrich Farm. Yep, you read that right – ostrich. They filled us in on how ostrich is a viable red meat-alternative that has the benefits of poultry, but cooks like beef! We needed to try it out for ourselves. But, of course, we couldn’t do something standard. Instead, we took a swing at what some have called the “Ohio Nachos” (hey, our marketing manager is from Ohio, what can we say). A stack of kettle chips, alfredo sauce, and blue cheese make for a cheesy and creamy, yet sophisticated snack or appetizer. We decided to up the game by adding some of the ground ostrich on top as well, turning this into a full-blown premium nacho. Or, as we like to call it – Blue Ostrich Nachos.

Ingredients:

• Shaft’s 1-Year Blue
• Ground Ostrich from American Ostrich Farm
• Kettle Chips
• Alfredo Sauce (store bought or homemade)
• Green Onion (for garnish)

Steps:

1. Brown ostrich meat in a skillet over medium heat.
2. While meat is cooking, make or heat up alfredo sauce
3. Assemble nachos by layering kettle chips, sauce, blue cheese crumbles and ostrich.
4. Top with green onion and serve!
