Another friend contribution.. Frito-Chili Pie

Yeah, I'm being lazy, but since people send them to me I may as well post them, right? I mean it would be rude to totally dismiss them!! LOL I am told that this recipe is kinda like required knowledge for anyone who lives in the southwest. I don't know if it's true, but that's what I have been told, so I am gonna post it.

I have had rave reviews of it, and I have yet to try it myself, so if you try it and like it please, let me know. I hope to try it in the near future. It is not like me to put something up untested, but because I trust the source without question, I am taking the chance. Any gripes, leave me your email address , and I will hook you up with the contributor! Or not! Maybe you want to submit your own recipe? You can always do that, email to: summerseeker67@yahoo.com

As written to me:

Frito Chili Pie Casserole (from T.V. - Mrs. Norman V. Peale)

2 1/2 cups Fritos corn chips (the original thin ones)
1 large onion, chopped
1 - 15 oz. can chili
1 cup grated cheddar cheese

Place 1 1/2 cups Fritos in a baking dish. Arrange chopped onion and
half the grated cheese over the Fritos. Pour heated chili over onion
and cheese. Top with remaining corn chips and grated cheese. Bake at
350 degrees for 10 minutes. Can be adapted for microwave by heating
the chili in the microwave and layering as normal. Cook on reheat
(80% power) for about 5 minutes.
