This cheesy Walking Taco Casserole is everything you love about Frito pie—ground beef, beans, chili seasoning, and crispy corn chips—baked into one easy, family-friendly dinner.
1 pound ground beef (80–90% lean)
1 cup chopped yellow onion
1 packet chili seasoning mix
½ cup beef broth or water
1 (15 oz) can kidney beans, drained
½ bag Fritos corn chips (about 4–5 oz)
3 cups shredded Mexican blend or cheddar cheese
Optional Toppings:
Shredded lettuce
Jalapeños
Chopped tomatoes
Sour cream
Green onions
Cilantro
Guacamole
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef and onions until beef is browned and onions are soft. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Turn off the heat and stir in chili seasoning, beef broth, drained kidney beans, and 1 cup of shredded cheese.
Spread the beef mixture evenly into a 9×9 or 9×11 baking dish.
Top with Fritos corn chips, then sprinkle the remaining 2 cups of cheese over the top.
Bake for 10–15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from oven and add desired toppings like lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, jalapeños, or guacamole before serving.
Serve with extra chips on the side for scooping.
Swap kidney beans with black beans or pinto beans if preferred.
Make it spicier by using hot chili seasoning or adding hot sauce.
Great for potlucks, game day, or a fun taco night!
