Oven-Baked Frito Pie

By Lsweetnell

I am not fond of kidney beans so I use a can of pinto beans, drained. Recipe calls for 8X8 pan, I don't have one of those but you could use a 9 inch cake pan, or add another half pound of ground beef and use a 9X13 inch pan instead.

Ingredients

• 1 lb. lean ground beef
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 can (16 oz) chili beans or pinto beans
• 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
• 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes or Rotel diced tomatoes
• 1 envelope low taco seasoning
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 3 1/2 cups corn chips (Fritos)
• 1 1/4 cup sour cream

Preparation

Step 1

Cook ground beef and diced onion until meat is browned; drain. Stir in beans, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, taco seasoning mix and 1/4 cup of cheese. Sprinkle 1 cup corn chips in bottom of 8x8 baking dish. Cover with chili sauce you made. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Spread sour cream over chili. Top with remaining corn chips and cheese. Bake 4-5 minutes longer. Some people do not like sour cream, can serve that cold and on the side instead.
