[YoungMhal]

I've been craving fries with lots of cheese lately and found a recipe for nacho fries. I highly recommend it! These crispy seasoned fries are loaded with gooey cheese, savory toppings, and all your favorite nacho fixings. Perfect for sharing (or not)! If you love fries and cheese, too, here's the recipe:

Ingredients (Serves 4-6):​

For the Fries:​

• 1 bag (28 oz / 800 g) frozen seasoned French fries (or make your own)
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder

For the Toppings:​

• 1 cup (100 g) shredded cheddar cheese (or a mix of cheddar and Monterey Jack)
• 1/2 cup (120 ml) nacho cheese sauce, warmed
• 1/2 cup (120 g) cooked ground beef or taco-seasoned meat (optional)
• 1/4 cup (30 g) black beans or refried beans (optional)
• 1/4 cup (30 g) diced tomatoes or pico de gallo
• 1/4 cup (30 g) sliced jalapeños
• 2 tbsp green onions, chopped
• 2 tbsp sour cream or Mexican crema
• 1/4 cup (30 g) guacamole or diced avocado (optional)

Instructions:​

1. Prepare the Fries:​

1. Preheat your oven and cook the fries according to the package instructions, or bake homemade fries until crispy.
2. Toss the fries with chili powder, paprika, and garlic powder for extra flavor once cooked.

2. Assemble the Loaded Fries:​

1. Spread the fries out on a large oven-safe plate or baking sheet.
2. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the fries. Place under a broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

3. Add the Toppings:​

1. Drizzle the nacho cheese sauce over the fries.
2. Top with ground beef or beans (if using), tomatoes, jalapeños, and green onions.
3. Add dollops of sour cream and guacamole on top.

4. Serve:​

• Serve immediately with extra toppings or hot sauce on the side!

Tips for Customization:​

• Spicy Kick: Add a drizzle of sriracha or chipotle sauce.
• Vegetarian Option: Skip the meat and load up on beans and veggies.
• Cheese Boost: Mix in pepper jack or queso fresco for added flavor.

Loaded nacho fries are the ultimate indulgent snack or party dish that will leave everyone coming back for more!
