I first heard about Walking Tacos (or Frito Pie as some refer to them as.  Different parts refer to them as different names.  No one is right or wrong🤦🏻‍♀️😑) when I was a Girl Scout and we made them at sleep-away camp.  This is nothing my Mom ever made for us, but I enjoyed making them for my kids when they were small. You can use Doritos instead of Fritos also!

Also, I use oats in my chili because they asorb the liquid as the chili cooks, trapping the flavors into the grain. Oats also give the chili even more of a hearty texture, helps to thicken it  and packs tons of extra nutritional benefits since it’s a great source of fiber

Brown beef with onion and garlic over medium-high heat. Add oats, tomatoes, Rotel, paste, salt, pepper and all the spices. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 30 minutes.

Serve by slicing the Frito bags open lengthwise. Pile in chili and cheese, and diced onion and sour cream
