Ingredients
Fries
- 1 lb frozen French fries
Toppings
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 green onions, sliced
- ¼ cup sour cream (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the fries: Bake the frozen French fries according to the package directions until they are golden and crispy, usually about 20-25 minutes.
- Arrange fries for topping: Spread the baked fries evenly on a baking sheet or any oven-safe platter to prepare for adding the toppings.
- Add cheese and bacon: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the fries, then scatter the cooked and crumbled bacon on top.
- Melt the cheese: Return the topped fries to the oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
- Finish with green onions: Remove the fries from the oven and immediately sprinkle the sliced green onions over the top.
- Serve: Optionally add dollops of sour cream on the side or on top, then serve the loaded cheese fries immediately to enjoy them warm and fresh.
Notes
- Use a blend of cheddar and mozzarella cheese for extra cheesiness and gooey texture.
- Add sliced jalapeños or other chili peppers for a spicy kick.
- Best enjoyed fresh as the fries will lose their crispiness if left to sit.
