Notes
These loaded fries are best consumed the same day, but they can also be reheated the next day in the oven or microwave.
For an easy cleanup, put aluminum foil in the bottom of the baking dish before the fries. Bake the fries and add your toppings as per instructions. When you have finished eating, simply remove the foil and everything on top and put it in the trash!
Leave them bare and separate into smaller portions. Let your guests top their own with the favorite toppings for personalized loaded fries.
Try steak fries, waffle fries, and even sweet potato fries!
Loaded fries may be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day after making.
