Made this frito pie for lunch today - I had forgotten how much I like it. I did "Texanize" it a bit however by adding chili, and some corn to accompany the black beans. I added the green chilies, but I also added some pickled jalapenos to top it off. I will definitely make this dish again as it is so tasty and easy to put together. Made for Fall PAC, 2012.

I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico with my two kids, my significant other, Scott, my sister Katy and 2 pets. We stay busy! I'm a speech language pathologist for the Santa Fe Public Schools and work with middle school students. I love to bake but don't like to cook so Scott does most of the cooking. Whatever I cook has to be easy and simple. We add green chile to nearly everything. I keep my favorite recipes in a recipe box but use recipezaar.com all the time.
