New Year's Resolution: Don't Make Cheeto Pie.

Frito pies are delicious.  So when I made turkey chili, Bobby suggested that we make Frito pie out of it.  The only drawback?  Our corner bodega was out of Fritos.  So what's a girl to do?  Red-hot Cheeto pie to the rescue!

Flamin!

The moral of the story? Don't do this. The red-hot Cheetos melted into a radioactive fried corn slurry under the meaty goodness of the chili. Didn't have that chew that you want with a Frito pie. Lame!

The Cheetos were already melted by this point.  Also, shallots.
