Frito Chili Pie Casserole
Print This Recipe
Did you know the very first Fritos were made with an old converted potato ricer? Mrs. Daisy Dean Doolin (mother of Elmer Doolin, the founder of the Frito Company) was the cook and Elmer was the route salesman for the corn chips. Nobody seems to know just when some talented cook combined Fritos and chili in this casserole dish, but it's Fritos' most-asked-for recipe.
