Hully Gully (Frito Chili Salad)

"This stunning and delicious salad was a staple at the Wheat's household. I must give the credit for that. Man, one plate of this stuff is NEVER enough! Form a serving line and let everyone build their own; chatting in "line" is half the fun of this meal."

directions

  • Cook your chili first.
  • While the chili is simmering, chop your lettuce, tomatoes, and onion.
  • Stir a bit of garlic salt in to the sour cream (it adds flavor and makes it more creamy).
  • Grate your cheese if it's not already grated.
  • Pop the top on your salsa and serve right from the jar if you wish.
  • Place the ingredients in separate bowls in a serving line fashion in this order: plates (big is good), chips, cheese, chili, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, sour cream, and salsa.
  • To serve: Chips go on the plate first, then the cheese. When you put the chili on top of that, the cheese will melt. Then the cold stuff on top -- lettuce, tomato, onion, sour cream and salsa.
  • I don't need to say, "enjoy" 'cuz I know you will! Kids LOVE this!

  1. LOVE this salad! :) I used a can of chili. skipped the onions, and used low fat ranch instead of sour cream. SO YUMMY! Even my toddler ate this salad happily. I think next time I might add jalapenos to the top of mine b/c I like extra spicy! It's a keeper... already put the leftover chili up so I can enjoy this tomorrow! Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. Thought I had reviewed this, so sorry. I have made this a couple of times with leftover chili & we really enjoy it. Easy!
     
  3. Delicious!! I used homemade chili and tortilla chips (not a fan of Fritos). We loved it! Thanks for sharing!
     
  4. This was a perfect recipe for me to use my leftover homemade chili in. We all loved this no fuss, Saturday night treat for dinner. I used Fritos and followed the recipe exactly. Thanks so much for posting!! :)
     
  5. Wow! This is a cross between a taco salad and a chili-cheese frito pie! I really liked it....especially adding the garlic to the sour cream for that little something special. Added to the fact that this is easy to throw together makes for a great recipe. Made for Fall PAC 2009! Thanks for posting.
