Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 package taco seasoning mix
2 cans chili (hot or mild according to your taste)
1 package Fritos (dip size)
1 medium-size onion, chopped
3 cups grated cheese (Mexican three cheeses or Cheddar)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400°. Prepare meat according to directions on taco mix packet. Heat chili in saucepan. Spray a large casserole dish or stoneware dish with nonstick cooking spray and layer ingredients in the following order: layer of Fritos, lightly mashed to settle, layer of prepared meat. Sprinkle onion over layer and spoon chili over layer. Cover layer with cheese. Repeat layering until all ingredients are added (usually 2 or 3 layers). The Fritos should be soaked, but firm and crisp at serving. Bake covered for 20 minutes. Serve with salad, avocados, and salsa. Note: Moisture is the key to this dish. Do not cook the meat too dry and a 1/4 cup water in the chili will add enough moisture.
