This is what happens when your wife goes out with her friends and you get to make ridiculous food for yourself:
Frito Pie.
That's Fritos®, a can of chili, Tillamook® cheddar, and pickled jalapeños.
And yes, that's a paper plate. It just seemed... appropriate, somehow.
Fucking. Delicious.
i do love me some frito pie...possibly the best thing texas ever did for me...
ReplyDeleteI think it's technically a New Mexican invention, but regardless, it's totes yummers.
DeleteNow that is some trashy food, not that I'm knocking it. How much sodium do you think that meal had?
ReplyDeleteToo much. I was surprised that the can of chili was "only" 640 calories.
DeleteI just checked. The chili had 2040 mg of sodium, and the fritos had approximately 720. I have no idea about the cheese or jalapeños.
ReplyDeleteSo yeah, too much. Yum.
Needs moar penis.
ReplyDeleteYou had me until the jalapeños. No one really likes them; people add them just to be trendy.
ReplyDeleteYou could definitely leave them off. I agree that a lot of people obsess about peppers in general, and I'm not a fan of anything spicier than a mild jalapeño. I will note that the ones I used here are "tamed" jalapeños -- pickled, and not very spicy at all. Think more along the lines of a tangy, slightly spicy green pepper or even a spicy pickle. In fact, they're not even as spicy as some pickles I've had.
