Units Scale

Fritos Chili Cheese Salad:

  • 1 bag (9.25 oz) chili cheese flavored Fritos corn chips
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 can (15 oz) chili beans, drained
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chili beans, diced tomatoes, diced onion, sour cream, salsa, and ranch dressing until well mixed.
  2. Just before serving, add the shredded lettuce and cheddar cheese, then gently fold in the chili cheese Fritos to keep them crunchy.
  3. Serve immediately as a side dish or main salad.

Notes

  • Add cooked seasoned ground beef or shredded chicken for a heartier meal.
  • For extra spice, mix in diced jalapeños or use spicy ranch.
  • Keep Fritos separate until ready to serve to avoid sogginess.
  • This salad is best eaten fresh and does not store well after chips are added.
