Instructions

Keep Screen Awake

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and set aside a 9×13 baking dish.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté ground beef and onion until cooked through. Add chili beans, tomato sauce.
Layer 2 cups of frito chips to the bottom of your baking dish.
Transfer the beef mixture on top of the frito chips layer.
Add the rest of frito chips and shredded cheddar cheese on top.
Bake for about 20 minutes until cheese is melted.
Garnish with green onions and serve immediately!

Notes

To make walking tacos, you can skip the baking process. Just add the cooked beef mixture to individual Frito bags and then top with cheese and onions!
