- 2 lbs seasoned regular cut fries

- 1/2 cup bacon bits or cooked bacon
- 1 small jalapeño sliced thin
- Sour cream optional
Instructions
- Bake your French fries according to package directions.

- Pop back in oven until cheese is melted.
- Remove and top with green onions, jalapeños and a dollop of sour cream if desired.
Notes
- You can use any fries that you like, we use seasoned regular cut fries.
- As noted above there are so many different topping options out there, this is just a base recipe that we love.
- Use freshly shredded cheese from the block, it melts easier than packaged cheese which has more preservatives in it.
- You can keep your fries on the baking pan you do not need to transfer to a cast iron or oven proof skillet, we do it because it's prettier and you get more cheese centered around your fries.
- We make it quicker by using real bacon bits, you can use cooked bacon if you would like as well.
