My goodness, these chips are addicting. I came up with the idea while pondering what we were going to snack on during today’s Daytona 500 race. I remembered back to the awesome Cheddar Ranch Pork Rind Puffs I made recently, and suddenly it hit me to try the same basic approach on Fritos chips. And thus cheddar ranch Fritos were created!
Fritos. Elevated.
My wife said that these chips (and the Southwestern Ranch dip i served with them) were some of the best things I’ve made. Like I said, the chips are mighty addicting. You’ve been warned! They have the perfect mix of cheddar and Ranch with that great corn crunch and flavor.
Oh, and if you’d rather make these with Fritos Scoops, you’ll definitely want to increase the amount of seasoning.
Also check out my grilled stuffed Fritos. Fritos are awesome!
