Frito pie is a mainstay at Texas high school football games, at county fairs and even in school cafeterias. Making it is quite simple: Slice open a small bag of Fritos, ladle in a heaping spoonful of beef chili and top with chopped onions, a generous sprinkling of cheddar cheese and, if you’re feeling decadent, a dollop of sour cream.
