Frito Pie (Baked)

Baked Frito pie is a layered casserole of corn chips, chili and cheddar that comes together with three ingredients. The chips soak up the chili at the bottom while the ones added at the end stay crisp, so you get two textures in every serving. Use homemade chili or a can, whichever you have. It is a classic American combination, and easy to dress up with sour cream, jalapeños or onions.
Instructions
Heat the oven to 350 °F (175 °C).
Spread 2 cups of the Fritos in an even layer in a baking dish.
Scatter half of the cheddar over the chips, then spoon the chili over the top and spread it out to the edges.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling.
Top the pie with the remaining cheese and Fritos, and serve it hot.
