Frito Pie Baked Potato

This is a spicy meal meant for singles or couples. It's delicious and a great comfort food! Even though it involves a baked potato, this is not a side dish - it's a full meal. Thanks to Bakers Brothers Deli for the inspiration! For me, this is way too much food, so I usually eat half of it for one meal and half later.

• Ready In: 40 mins
• Serves: 1-2
• Yields: 1 potato

Ingredients

• 1  large  baked potato
• 1  tablespoon butter (optional) or 1  tablespoon margarine (optional)
• 1 (15 ounce) can  wolf brand  chili with beans
• 1⁄2 cup  Fritos chili cheese corn chips (crushed into large pieces, this is done easiest while still in the bag)

Directions

1. In the microwave or oven, bake the large potato (leave the skin on before and after cooking).
2. While baking the potato, heat the chili on the stove top or in the microwave.
3. After cooking the potato until tender, chunk it with a fork removing any brown spots while adding in the butter.
4. Sprinkle the potato with cheese and pour on some of the heated chili. If necessary, heat the smothered potato in the microwave for 30 seconds or so.
5. Mix in the crushed Fritos and top with sour cream, jalapenos, and Tabasco sauce, all to taste.
6. Mix well, eat well, and tell your vegetarian friends and cardiologist that you'll die happy.
