CHEW THE RIGHT THING
BITE IT!
HG's Neat-O Chili-Frito Burrito
Frito at Last
This swap is for one of those supreme junk food items we thought we'd
NEVER be able to experience sans guilt. Good thing we're wrong from time to
time -- this thing ROCKS!
Ingredients:
1/3 cup low-fat turkey or veggie chili
1 La Tortilla Factory Smart & Delicious Low Carb High Fiber Large Tortilla (or
alternative below)
2 tbsp. shredded fat-free cheddar cheese
1/2 package Fritos Original Corn Chips 100 Calorie Pack (or other alternative
below!)
Optional: 2 tbsp. diced onion
Directions:
Place chili in a microwave-safe bowl, cover, and heat for 45 - 60 seconds,
until hot. Set aside.
Lay tortilla flat on a microwave-safe plate, and warm in the microwave for
about 10 seconds. Spoon chili down the center of the tortilla. Cover the chili
with cheese, and then top with Fritos. If you like, sprinkle with onion.
Wrap tortilla up like a burrito, folding the sides in first, and then rolling it up
from the bottom. (Or serve it wrap-style, with one end left open.) Place
burrito seam-side down on the plate, and microwave for 30 seconds.
Now CHEW!

HG Alternative! If you can't locate those 80-calorie tortillas made by La
Tortilla Factory, use any low-fat, high-fiber, burrito-size tortilla with about
110 calories. Then your burrito will have about 248 calories and a POINTS®
value of 5*. Yippee!
(Another) HG Alternative! If you can't find 100-calorie packs of Fritos, you
could just use 10 Fritos from a regular bag. But we don't trust ourselves
around a giant bag of Fritos -- so we'd just use 50 calories' worth of crushed
baked tortilla chips instead!
FIGHT IT!
Sonic's Fritos Chili Cheese Wrap
Sonic Doom
We wanna know which crazy person over at Sonic one day said, "Hey, why
don't we toss handfuls of FRITOS inside a wrap along with piles of chili and
cheese?! Good idea, right???" Reveal yourself! Too scared? We're not
surprised at all. That kooky human created a fast food monster -- Sonic's
Fritos Chili Cheese Wrap. The thing has almost 700 calories and nearly 40
grams of fat! But we have to admit, we're a little intrigued by it. Chili &
cheese topped with crunchy corn chips and stuffed inside a warm tortilla
sounds appealing... like REALLY appealing. So we decided to take a stab at
putting our own version together. And we succeeded with flying corn chips!
Our Neat-O Chili-Frito Burrito is DELICIOUS. And, um, totally guilt-free. Who
loves you???
