1 (8-ounce) bag Fritos, divided
1 (8-ounce) package shredded nacho and taco cheese, divided
1 (15-ounce) can chili
1/3 cup guacamole
1/3 cup sour cream
1 (7-ounce) can jalapeño pepper, drained, minced
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 salsa

Spread half the Fritos in a 9x13-inch dish and sprinkle with half the cheese; top with remaining Fritos and cheese. Bake at 450° for 12 minutes or till cheese is melted.

Heat chili over medium heat. Spoon pockets of chili here and there over mound of hot baked Fritos. Dot guacamole and sour cream over chips, scatter jalapeños and green onions over all, and serve with salsa on the side.

Fun Fact: Cheap paper plates make great throwaway cutting boards. It’s hard to pick up just one off that tight stack, so while your spouse or kids are watching TV, hand them the stack and let them do the separating. This saves lots of frustration when you’re trying to grab a single plate off the stack with one hand. And the little kids love doing this. (Make sure they wash their hands.)
