Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 can (15 oz / 425g) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (8 oz / 225g) tomato sauce
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) water
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1 1/2 cups (170g) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups (60g) Fritos Original corn chips

Method
 

  1. Cook the 1 lb ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 6 to 8 minutes, breaking it up as it browns, then drain the excess fat.
  2. Reduce heat to medium. Add the kidney beans, tomato sauce, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and water. Stir and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes until thick.
  3. Warm each of the 4 flour tortillas over a low gas flame or in a dry skillet for about 20 seconds per side until pliable.
  4. Lay each tortilla flat, spoon about 1/2 cup chili down the center, top with roughly 3 tbsp shredded cheddar and about 1/2 cup Fritos, then fold the sides in and roll from the bottom up.
  5. Place each wrap seam-side down in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes until golden, then transfer to a plate, slice diagonally, and serve with extra chili on the side.

Notes

These wraps are best eaten right away while the Fritos are still crunchy. If you're making them for a group, keep the chili warm on low heat and let everyone build their own so the chips don't sit too long before eating. The chili recipe makes a little more than you need for 4 wraps, which is a bonus for lunch the next day.
