Fries and Toppings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Fries

    Preheat your oven and bake the frozen French fries according to package instructions until they are crispy and golden brown.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the fries are baking, cook the bacon in a skillet until crispy, then crumble it into small pieces. Slice the green onions.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Chili Cheese Fries

    Once the fries are done baking, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hot fries. Then add the crumbled bacon on top.

  4. 4

    Melt the Cheese

    Return the loaded fries to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.

  5. 5

    Season and Serve

    Remove the fries from the oven, and season with salt and black pepper. Top with sliced green onions and a dollop of sour cream. Serve immediately.
