Frito Pie with Chili con Carne
"It's hard to go wrong when you combine homemade chili, onions and cheddar cheese with addictively crunchy Fritos corn chips, and you can serve this decadent treat with your chips piled high in a big bowl topped with warm chili and all the fixin's, or "walking taco" style, with the chili dumped right into an individual serving-size bag of Fritos...."
