Frito pie is not really a pie, it's a kind of a taco. The beans and beef in this recipe make a slight approximation to chili, but without the effort of making a delicious chili. The chili served over Fritos is traditionally a Texas-style chili (no beans, of course), which comes as no surprise seeing as how this dish originated in the Lonestar state and is considered true-blue Texas food. However, like most food origins, the beginning of Frito Pie has been disputed many times over. A thick, delicious chili on top of Fritos corn chips makes these amazing meal called Frito Chili Pie!
