Chicken Bacon Ranch Frito Pie ***

I'm usually not a huge fan of mayo-based meals, but the hubs and kids love them. I don't eat supper very often throughout the week, so I threw this one together on a night I knew that I wouldn't be eating. They loved it! There's nothing special about it at all, but it's super quick to get in the oven. I served it with salad, to make myself feel better about all of the less-than-healthy (ha!) ingredients. But they gave it rave reviews.



CHICKEN BACON RANCH FRITO PIE
(luckymommyto2boys ~ Amy ~ ThisIsNotDietFood)

3 cups chicken cooked, shredded
1/2 cup mayo
1/2 cup ranch dressing
1/2 cup real bacon bits
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 bunch green onions, chopped
5 cups Frito's corn chips
2 cups cheddar cheese blend, shredded
2 tbsp real bacon bits

Preheat oven to 400F.
Dump the shredded chicken, mayo, ranch dressing, 1/2 cup of real bacon bits, salt and pepper into a large mixing bowl.
Add half of the chopped green onions to the mixing bowl and set the remaining half aside.
Stir all of the ingredients in the mixing bowl together until they are fully combined.
Dump the corn chips into a greased 9 x 13 inch baking dish and spread them out evenly.
Spoon the chicken mixture over the corn chips.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the chicken.
Sprinkle the remaining chopped green onions and 2 tbsp of real bacon bits on top of the cheese.
Place the dish in the oven and bake until the cheese is fully melted and just starting brown around the edges. 23-25 minutes.
Remove from the oven, slice and serve.
Enjoy!
