For a vegetarian option, omit the pork and beans and substitute with an additional can of pinto or kidney beans. Adjust the amount of chili powder to your preference. Start with 1 teaspoon and add more to taste. Fry bread is best served immediately. If making ahead, reheat in a warm oven to maintain crispness. Get creative with your toppings! Consider adding avocado, salsa, or a drizzle of hot sauce. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky. If it's too dry, add a little more water, one tablespoon at a time.

01
Step
5 mins
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook and stir 1 chopped onion in the melted butter until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
02
Step
15 mins
Place a large saucepan over medium-high heat and pour in pinto beans, kidney beans, pork and beans, tomato sauce, cooked onion, and 1/4 cup water, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, and stir in 3 tablespoons sugar, chili seasoning mix, chili powder, and seasoned salt. Let the chili simmer while you finish the remaining steps, 10 to 20 minutes. Stir chili occasionally.
03
Step
10 mins
Mix 3 cups flour with baking powder, 6 tablespoons sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl; stir in 2 cups of water or amount needed to make a workable dough. Spread 1 cup flour onto a work surface and scoop up about 1/4 cup of dough; drop it onto the flour and sprinkle surface with flour. Roll the dough into a flat round tortilla.
04
Step
5 mins
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
05
Step
5 mins
Gently lay tortilla into the hot oil and deep fry until golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Dough will expand as it fries. Remove fry bread and drain on paper towels; continue to make and fry pieces of dough until all dough has been used.
06
Step
5 mins
Place lettuce, tomatoes, Cheddar cheese, 1 chopped onion, and sour cream into separate bowls. To serve, spoon a ladle of chili onto each fry bread and sprinkle with desired garnishes; top each serving with a dollop of sour cream.
