  3. Evenly distribute 2 cups of your favorite chili over the tortilla chips.
  4. Sprinkle 1 ½ cups of shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese blend) over the chili.
  5. Repeat layers with remaining tortilla chips, chili, and cheese, creating 2-3 layers.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with your favorite toppings (sour cream, jalapeños, green onions, etc.) and enjoy!
