Step 1

First make your jalapeño sauce by combining vinegar, water, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan.

Step 2

Stir to dissolve the sugar and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

Step 3

Add your sliced jalapeño and sliced red onion and cook until onions are translucent, stirring frequently for about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Now the fun part… Slit open the front of the Frito’s bag with a knife or scissors. You don’t want the hole to be too big, but big enough to fit your ingredients inside (see my video on how I did this).

Step 6

Add a small amount of heated chili and mix it with the Fritos to combine well.

Step 7

Top with a generous amount of chili and garnish with onion and jalapeno sauce and a squeeze of lime if you so desire. If you have avocados, mash it up and add it on top. You can also add vegan sour cream, salsa or anything you desire.

Step 8

Now you are ready to eat your Frito Pie!
