I love Frito pie! I have never baked mine though. I will have to try it that way next time. I use lettuce, kind of more like a frito pie salad instead maybe lol. That way I guess I can say it's healthy right lol. I also like to add sour cream on top.

Ah, Frito pie. Memories of living in Texas flood back to me. I don't bake it because I want the crunch--and sometimes I do still eat this in the frozen north.
Maria says
I love this idea and so will my kids- very, very naughty indeed lol.
