Frito Pie

This recipe needs a little work. It’s simple but good. It could use some black beans, corn, and sour cream on top when serving. I recommend incorporating a can of rinsed and drained black beans and a can and drained fiesta corn. I also diced up an onion and included it. I can’t get enough onions. The final recommendation is to put the Fritos on top not the bottom. They get soggy.

Again I recommend using this 8 X 8 anchor baking dish with a lid to store your leftovers. You can click this link https://amzn.to/4gadTaJ to purchase one. This is an Amazon Affiliate link and I will earn a small commission if you purchase through my link. Thanks for your support.
