Nothing Fancy Leftover Chili Pie

This is just my variation of the common "Frito Pie". Nothing fancy, nothing special, and nothing pretty, especially when serving, but it's tasty, quick and easy! This is a perfect way to use leftover chili.
Ingredients
- 3-4 cups left over cooked chili shopping list
- 1/2 cup spicy V8 cocktail juice(if your chili is soupy, already, then just omit this) shopping list
- 1 bag regular sized corn chips shopping list
- 8oz mild cheddar, colby or cojack cheese, shredded shopping list
- green onions, sliced jalapenos, sour cream, cilantro, to garnish(optional) shopping list
How to make it
- Lightly spray 10inch deep dish pie plate.
- Combine chili and cocktail juice
- Layer bottom with about 1/2 bag of corn chips
- spread with chili
- sprinkle with shredded cheese
- top with more corn chips(you probably won't use the whole bag :)
- Bake at 400 for about 20-30 minutes until heated through and cheese is melted, well.
- Let rest about 5 minutes before serving.
- Add garnishes at serving.
- **some notes...this doesn't cut up pretty, so it serves sloppy, but it's not meant to be gourmet. ;) Also, the extra juice helps not only add flavor, but also helps to soak into the chips and form just a bit more of a softer "crust" on the bottom.
