Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Spread the corn chips in an even layer in a baking dish. Then, pour the chili over the chips and spread into an even layer.
4 cups corn chips,
3 cups canned chili

Remove from the oven and top with the diced onion. Serve immediately.

Notes
This recipe scales up or down easily. Keep the chip layer thin no matter the pan size.
Bigger batches or thicker layers may need a few extra minutes in the oven. You're just warming everything through, not cooking anything raw.
Use any canned chili you like. Beans are optional.
Save a few chips to scatter on top before serving for extra crunch.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freezing isn't recommended since the chips turn mushy.
