TACO SEASONING
- 1/2 teaspoon Chili Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Paprika

CHEESY FRITO PIE
- 1 lb Ground Beef
- 1 cup Chopped Onion
- 1½ cups Tomatoes chopped
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
- 19 ounces Enchilada Sauce
- 15 ounces Black Beans
- 9.25 ounces Fritos Chips
- 2 cups Mexican Shredded Cheese
- 1/4 cup Cotija Cheese or grated parmesan
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees ℉ and spray or grease an oven-safe large (12-inch at least) skillet with oil.
Prepare the taco seasoning by mixing all the spices together in a small bowl. In another small bowl mix the Chopped Onions, Tomatoes, 1 tablespoon of Olive Oil, and Fresh Parsley and set aside.
Place a separate skillet over medium-high heat on the stove and brown the Ground Beef, breaking apart into small bits. Add the taco seasoning, tomato mixture, Enchilada Sauce, and Black Beans and stir to combine. Cooking for about 4 more minutes or until the sauce begins to thicken.
As the beef mixture is cooking layer the bottom of the prepared skillet with Fritos and top with 1 cup of the Mexican Shredded Cheese. Once finished, pour the beef mixture over the chip layer and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of Mexican cheese on top. Add the Cotija or other grated cheese next. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes until cheese is bubbly.
Serve with Sour Cream.
