This was a great recipe! My mom used to make these when I was younger, and I recently got a hankering for them. She’s passed now, so I’m not able to go to her to get old recipes like this anymore, so I’m very thankful you put this up. It tasted exactly as I remember them. I will say, I know she never used processed cheese, so I added an extra 8 oz of shredded cheddar in place of it.
These taste amazing. They’re so bad for your health. It’s great, however, for an easy to make drunk/hangover meal.
Very good! Could this be frozen before the top cheese is added?
It was a nice change from just chili.
Everything was good about this recipe except there was too much raw onion. Next time I’ll sauté the onion before or leave them out completely.
My family and I were not a fan of these. The filling has the consistency and taste of something akin to spinach dip. And the “scant half cup” of filling the recipe calls for is WAY too much. Less than a quarter cup of filling would make them a little more edible.
Good simple, quick easy TexMex. Perfect for busy moms. By the way, keep in mind cheap or bargain cheese does not melt well so if that was used it is not going to melt well but shiny and rubbery if there’s a melting issue. Otherwise, a recipe has nothing to do with how a cheese melts or does not melt. Wolf brand chili, LOL a classic and haven’t been able to keep it out of my son’s hands since he was 13. So this is a big hit, economical and a smash when he has game night with a bowl of corn chips and friends. Nothing fancy, a tasty fast family night yes for us.
Very good but too much onion for me, which was probably my own fault. I’ll cut the onion in half next time.
I’m not sure what I was expecting, but this wasn’t it. Made exactly like the recipe, and it was not good.
Second time around I am not using the chili, do not think it added a lot. Using the enchilada sauce on this web site instead, see how that goes.
Great when you want something quick and easy and it’s really good too!
My husband loved this recipe!
Haven’t had this since I was a kid, sooo glad I found this recipe! Just as good as I remember!
Perfect recipe!! I live by myself inexpensive way to eat and made three meals with it!! Delicious!! I think next time I’m going to use a packet of seasonings I bought to add. I forgot to use it. It was still good without it but I thought the spices might kick it up a notch!! Thank you for an easy and protein filled meal!!
This was good but kind of hard to make.
This wasn’t a hit for my family. The recipe was missing something. I felt like I was just eating chili. We wouldn’t make it again.
Part time RV’rs, small refers and ovens. This is a great dish for this life style.

Made it for company! Really easy and delicious! Approved by six kids! Will make it again!
I cooked exactly as written and it turned out delicious!
This dish turned out excellent! I added some more hamburger and I used tostitos nacho cheese instead of velveta I also used a can of Stagg chili with beans cause I like beans . I will be making this again. Thank you for this recipe.
