How to Make Chili Cheese Frito Burritos

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium saucepan, heat 1.5 cups of your favorite chili over medium heat. Stir in 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup chopped onions.
  3. Continue to stir until the cheese is melted and the mixture is heated through (about 2-3 minutes).
  4. Lay out 6 large flour tortillas. Scoop about 1/2 cup of the chili mixture into the center of each tortilla. Top with 1/4 cup crushed Fritos, 1 tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese, and your desired amount of chopped tomatoes and/or onions.
  5. Carefully roll up the burritos and place them seam-down in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
