Frito Pie.exe

Take a bag of Fritos pair it with a meaty base, dump in a casserole dish and you&#39;ve got a Frito Pie! This is hands down my fav variation of Frito pie.

bag Fritos Scoops

olive oil

yellow onion (chopped fine (about 1 cup))

bell pepper (red

garlic

salt

½ teaspoon course ground black pepper

chili powder (preferably dark)

oregano (Mexican if you have it)

can diced tomatoes (preferably fire-roasted)

Ranch beans

Worcestershire sauce

enchilada sauce (mild)

corn (preferably fire-roasted)

cilantro

blend cheese

onions

Preheat oven to 350F. Set rack to middle position. Spray 9x13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Reserve 1 cup Fritos and gently crush them; set aside. Layer in about half of the remaining Fritos, completely covering the bottom of the dish.

In a large skillet, add olive oil, onion, and bell pepper. Season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Cook over medium-high heat until just starting to caramelize, about 8-10 minutes.

Add garlic and spices and continue to cook for 1 minute.

Add ground beef and break up into small chunks. Cook until beef is almost cooked through, about 6 minutes.

Add in diced tomatoes, Ranch beans, enchilada sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Continue cooking until the sauce starts to thicken, but is still thin enough that when you run a spoon through it, it comes back together fairly quickly, about 5 minutes.

Add corn and cilantro, stir together and remove from heat.

Pour about ½ of meat mixture on top of Fritos layer. Layer on half of the cheese, add the remaining meat. Layer on the remaining half of the Fritos, then the remaining half of the cheese.

Place in oven and bake until the mixture is hot and bubbling slightly, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and garnish with green onions. Let sit for 5 minutes, garnish each serving with crushed Fritos. Enjoy!
