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 ounce) cans of corn that are drained really well.
