A great quick meal that was a favorite in my family when I was growing up and that my kids love too! Recipe has been adjusted to 2 cans of chili as suggested by reviewers. I normally use one and don't use the entire bag of fritos. You can adjust the chili to frito ratio to your taste. More chili is always good.
Ingredients:
1 (10 ounce) bag fritos corn chips
2 (15 ounce) cans chili
1 (15 ounce) can tamales
2 cups cheddar cheese (grated)
1 cup onion (finely chopped)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Spray a square casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
