Notes
Some folks put in half the crushed Fritos at the time they make it, then add the other half in right before serving.
You do not need to use the entire bag of Fritos corn chips. This is entirely up to you and your tastebuds.
Using pre-shredded cheese in a bag works just fine.
If you don't have time to thaw out a bag of corn, then use 2 (15 oz.) cans of corn that are drained really well.
Also, for a big bump in flavor, try using the chili cheese or BBQ flavored Fritos.
