Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the fries

    Preheat your oven according to the French fries package instructions. Spread the frozen fries on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake until golden brown and crispy, following package cooking time.

  2. 2

    Cook the bacon

    While the fries are baking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from skillet and let drain on paper towels. Once cool, chop into small pieces.

  3. 3

    Assemble the fries

    Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Then, add the cooked bacon pieces.

  4. 4

    Melt the cheese

    Return the loaded fries to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  5. 5

    Garnish and serve

    Once out of the oven, top the fries with sliced green onions, and serve with sour cream on the side. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
