In this case, a couple of the items were canned chili and (frozen) refrigerated pie crusts that needed to be used. What to make with them? Well, a Chili Pie of course ;-)
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. If the chili you are using has an excessive amount of water/fat content, you will want to drain one or two of the cans so you don't end up with an overly soggy crust.
Place one pie crust in a 9 inch pie pan. Sprinkle inside of the crust with 1/4 of the cheese, top evenly with one can of chili, sprinkle with diced onions, then with 1/4 more of the cheese and repeat process. The top layer will be the last of the cheese. Top pie with remaining pie crust, trim, flute well and make vent cuts on top.
Place pie on a cookie sheet in case the chili bubbles out over the edges and bake until crust is golden, about 35 to 45 minutes. If edges begin to brown too much before the top is golden then cover the edges with strips of foil.
Remove pie from oven, let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serve with sour cream.

I was reading a tip on the recipes for chili dip and it stated to use half a chili brick. What's that? As I live in the U.K, I have never heard of it. Many thanks. xxx This is a link to the specific recipe in question: Chili Dip

Hi, I also live in the UK and whenever I make chilli or dip I use dried chilli flakes, you don't need many unless you want a real strong dip or chilli. If you want beans there are plenty of tinned choices in the supermarkets. It depends on where you live but Adsa and Tesco stock world foods, if you have any asian stores they stock chilli flakes, if you think they are to large you can always grind them down. Just wash your hands after handling them and don't touch your face or eyes. Boy will you know about it if you do. Any problems, let me know. Go luck.
Let cheese set at room temperature until soft. Press in bottom of microwavable dish. Top with chili. Sprinkle cheese on top. Microwave until melted and hot. Serve with taco chips.
