My aunt makes these crispy savory bites for every backyard barbecue and it only takes 3 ingredients to create a highly addictive snack.

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef (80–90% lean)
1 (15-ounce) can chili beans in mild chili sauce, undrained
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (bright yellow, packed)
1 (9–10-ounce) bag sturdy corn tortilla scoop chips (you’ll use about 40–50 scoops to fill a 9×13-inch dish)
Optional: pinch of salt and black pepper to taste, if needed

Directions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Set out a 9×13-inch glass casserole dish so it’s ready for assembling the scoops.
