      Being from Texas, Frito Pie was the 6th food group....especially at a football game! Wolf Brand Chili is the only way to go (NO BEANS!). I eat mine with diced red onion, cheese and sour cream on top. I absolutely hate mustard so I'll have to leave that one out. :-) Thanks for posting.

      This was a fun Sunday night dinner. I used Kelly's Chili for the chili. We've never had Frito Pie before & DH felt a pie should have a top, so I topped with crushed corn chips & grated cheese. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

      also a great recipe to use for fund-raising events! our p.t.a. sold them at fun night recently and served them directly out of snack-size bags of fritos corn chips. a fun presentation, yummy and very popular!

      Yummy! I made these for the "Tailgate Potluck" and they turned out quite better than the football game I was watching (my team lost). These are like chili nachos and taste great with either jalapenos on top or a splash of tabasco sauce. Nice easy football snack! Thanks for posting!

      i have to agree with everyone else -- hard to mess this up -- what i love is that it works whether i am using vegetarian chili, chicken chili, canned chili or homemade chili and i can control the spices depending on who i am making it for -- mine is always hotter then the bowl i make for anyone else

      What a great walk down memory lane! When I was young I used to live in West Texas and had more than my fair share of frito pies, lol. I haven't had one for years, so totally enjoyed this one. Thanks for the blast from the past JustaQT! Made for Chef Alphabet Soup Tag.

      Definately one of my favorite comfort foods. You cannot improve this recipe...well maybe you can spice it up to your heat level preference with chopped jalapenos, but that's all. I love this one!

      I love Frito pie. Moving to Idaho from Oklahoma, people thought I was crazy when I mentioned Frito Pie. I love to make it with leftover home made chili. Thanks for posting this, so it won't be just a southern thing!!

      Pretty yummy! I've never heard of this dish but it sounds like it's a STAPLE munchie to everyone else! I've decided that I will only make it on Superbowl Sunday, though. Or when I want to indulge! Thanks for the recipe!

      I live Frito Pies!! It must be a Texas thing. They are the best with mustard. I always thought adding mustard was gross when my mom used to add it when I was young, but she sure knew what she was talking about when she said it's the only way to eat a frito pie. I sometimes use Doritos instead.

      Always look forward to having this as one of the meals a day or two after making a big pot of chili. Sometimes I'll substitute the corn chips with some good, greasy, salty french fries.

      Even better with a glob of sour cream on top.I have eaten this since my school days 50 years ago.Anyway,I always had to fix it for my yankee hubby when we were in Texas but I had the pleasure of using wolf brand chili.I have not found it up here in the north.And I have looked.I still remember the commercials when the weather turned cool back home,"it's wolf brand chili weather."That meant to us it was time for frito pie!Thank you for posting this one justaqt.It is suppose to snow today, so guess what's for dinner?

      Being from Arkansas - I LOVE Frito Pie, I actually prefer the little frito chips b/c you are really supposed to eat frito pie with a fork - one question though - are those TORTILLA chips in the picture? uh, no no no no :)

      I love frito pie. Try using the Fritos Scoops. You can pick them up better and eat them like nachos.

      The first time I had ever even heard of a frito pie was at a military summer bash that they were being served at. Now, I have southern roots so I would have expected to know what a frito pie was, but I guess those southern roots aren't as deep as I thought. lol! These are very good, though, and it was better late then never that I discovered these. Thank you for posting. :)

      Frito Pie was a standard fare on Wednesdays at South San Antonio High School. I have made it for many years and have added sliced black olives. Today I put shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes on top. Yummy!
