Our favorite from Carinos!

My sister gave me the recipe to make these amazing Italian nacho chips. I have looked high and low for these. Jer and I always share these whenever we go to Carinos Italian Restaurant. They were so easy and so yummy. Here's how to make them if you are interested everyone...
1. Cook won ton wraps in 1-2 inches of oil. Remove quickly since they will brown too soon. Set aside on napkins to drain.
2. cook Italian sausage until brown. Drain grease.
3. Make Alfredo sauce (see below)
4. Layer chips, sausage, black olives, yellow peppers, jalapenos and Alfredo sauce. You can top with mozzarella if desired. (we left it off)

My home made Alfredo sauce:
1. On med/low heat melt 1 stick butter.
2. Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup flour to melting better and whisk.
3. Add about 2-3 cups of milk to golden butter flour mixture. Turn up heat and continue to stir.
4. when starting to bubble turn off heat and add grated Parmesan cheese. about 1 cup but to your taste. take off heat and let cool. Will thicken up.

Thanks Amanda! This was amazing and we felt like we were at a nice restaurant at home. What a treat.

Glad you guys liked them. I will have to try them sometime but will do something other than alfredo. That sauce has no taste!
