- Add the enchilada sauce and beans; stir well.
- Pour 4 cups of the Fritos into the bottom of the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with 1 cup of the cheese. Evenly spread the meat mixture over the chips. Top with the remaining cheese.
- Bake the casserole at 350ºF for 18-20 minutes until hot and bubbly. Sprinkle the top of the casserole with the remaining Fritos.
- Cool slightly before serving. Serve with chopped green onions, sour cream, and guacamole.
