“Won’t you be my neighbor?”
Wasn’t Mr. Rogers a rad dude? As a kid, I watched his television show almost every day after school. That and Reading Rainbow! GAH. Those were the PBS days. Even at the ripe old age of seven, I still remember thinking he is the only person I know that could rock a zippered cardigan, while singing a song. Am I right?
Between the learning, music, and charm, Mr. Rogers would have been the most epic neighbor. Although, I probably would have been that annoying kid always knocking on the door, “Um, excuse me, Mr. Rogers. Why is the sky blue? Where do babies come from? Why do we have to learn fractions? Have you ever thought of trying a magenta color cardigan?”
And speaking of magenta color cardigans, I have zero idea if my neighbors fancy a cardigan let alone a magenta colored one. I feel like neighbors should know these things. Come to think of it, I don’t know much about my neighbors. Isn’t that terrible? They could know where the Holy Grail exists and because I didn’t bring them these ultimate kobe beef skillet nachos with Kettle chips and topped with fry sauce, I will never get invited on the epic journey. Sigh.
Well, the reason I brought up these kettle chip inspired nachos is because the fantastic folks over at Kettle Brand Chips are kicking off a “Hey, Neighbor” program this summer, which is designed to inspire neighbors to connect, with the goal of establishing a strong community. Something that Kettle Brand Chips has been committed to for over 30 sassy years!
Not only are these skillet nachos potluck friendly, they are the perfect dish to serve up on the Fourth of July. Piled high with juicy ground kobe beef, gooey cheese, and the piece de resistance: fry sauce. You’ll be the totes mcgotes of your neighborhood party!
If you want to join in the get-to-know-your-neighbor fun, you can purchase a summer sharing kit at www.buykettlechips.com throughout the summer. And if you really want to unce-unce it up, Kettle Brand chips developed all the tools to make it easy, including invites, name tags, and Get to Know Your Neighbor cards available here!

Take a handful of the Kettle chips and place them on a single layer on the bottom of the skillet. Sprinkle some of the ground beef mixture on top along with cheddar cheese. Repeat process again. Place in oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown and cheesy.
In the meantime, make the fry sauce, Mix together mayonnaise, ketchup, and a pinch of s&p. Remove skillet from oven; garnish with tomato, lettuce, red onion, and fry sauce. Serve immediately.

Oh yes, Mr. Rogers and Reading Rainbow, did you and all the other kids in your class belt out the Reading Rainbow intro song every single time you watched in your classroom? We did, and we thought we were pretty flipping cool while doing so. And you know what, I also know next to nothing about my neighbors, pretty sad, especially because back in the day some of your closest friends were your neighbors…I keep telling myself that once I have kids we’ll get to know them better…we shall see…Now these nachos, definitely something worthy of pulling neighbors together, because if everyone on the block isn’t down with these, well, then maybe there’s a reason you haven’t gotten to know them. Ha.
Reading Rainbow is where it was at! And yes, totally belted out that song! Thanks, Nicole!

That looks really good but what is Kobe Beef?
Janet – Kobe Beef is a cut from waygu cattle and is considered a decadent cut of meat due to the well marbling. I found some ground Kobe at my local grocery store. Let me know if you have anymore questions!
Kettle chip nachos? Mind=blowen.
LOL!! Thanks, Julianne!
I want to free base these nachos!!
BAHAHAHA! I will gladly trade you some nachos for one of your hot dogs!
These look amazing!!! This is total man food, my husband would loooove these!
Nachos now! Great idea on the kettle chips front.. they are my favorite and then add in the kobe beef {which is totally the best kind} and holy cow yum!
I don’t know my neighbors either!! And I live in an apartment building so we’re always in the elevator together and just don’t speak. Awkward. I feel like offering up a share in these nachos would help bring us together!!
