Here’s a step-by-step guide to making a Homemade Frito Chili Cheese Wrap — perfect for a quick, filling, and delicious snack or meal inspired by the classic Sonic wrap!
Ingredients:
- Flour tortillas (medium or large size, depending on preference)
- Fritos corn chips
- Chili without beans (such as Hormel; about 1 cup per wrap)
- Red onion, diced (use as much as desired for added crunch)
- Shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese blend)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Tortillas:
- Warm each tortilla by microwaving for about 10-15 seconds, just enough to make it soft and easy to fold without breaking. You can also warm them in a skillet on medium heat for a few seconds on each side if you prefer.
- Heat the Chili:
- Pour the chili into a saucepan and warm over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Alternatively, microwave the chili in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring in between until hot.
- Assemble the Wrap:
- Lay a warmed tortilla flat on a plate or cutting board.
- Sprinkle a layer of Fritos in the center of the tortilla, leaving some space around the edges for easy folding.
- Spoon a generous portion of hot chili over the Fritos.
- Add diced red onions to taste, then sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top. (If you prefer melted cheese, you can microwave the wrap for a few seconds at this point.)
- Wrap it Up:
- Fold up the bottom of the tortilla, then fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly, like a burrito. Avoid overfilling to prevent any spilling.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve the wrap while it’s warm for the best combination of textures. Enjoy as is, or slice in half for easier handling.
Tips:
- Extra Toppings: Try adding a drizzle of hot sauce, salsa, or sour cream inside for extra flavor.
- Make it Melty: After wrapping, you can toast the wrap on a skillet for a few minutes on each side to make it golden and crispy.
These wraps are an easy, satisfying way to recreate a beloved fast-food favorite at home!
