Notes

Use Any Chips: Any individual-size chip bag works. Doritos, Fritos, and tortilla chips are all classic picks, so use your favorite.
Make It Your Own: Add toppings like guacamole, diced onions, black olives, cilantro, or hot sauce.
Crush and Open: Lightly crush the closed bag first to break the chips into fork-friendly pieces, then open the top.
Make-Ahead: Cook and season the beef earlier in the day, prep the toppings in bowls, then reheat the beef and assemble in minutes.
