Step 5

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Step 6

Remove pork from the pressure cooker and shred with two forks or your hands.
Step 7

Place a layer of tortilla chips on a baking sheet and layer with generous portions of shredded pork and cheese. Repeat with another layer of chips, meat and cheese.
Step 8

Top with peppers and place in the oven for 5-8 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 9

Remove from the oven and top with pico de gallo, sour cream, jalapeno, pepper and any other of your favorite nacho toppings. Enjoy!
Step 10

No pressure cooker? No problem! To use a standard slow cooker, brown the meat on stove top and then place in slow cooker with chicken broth on LOW for 6-7 hrs or HIGH for 4 hrs.
