🛒 Ingredients
4 large potatoes (Russets work best, for crispy fries)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
½ cup cooked turkey bacon (crumbled, for topping)
¼ cup chopped green onions (for garnish)
🔧 Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Fries
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and peel the potatoes (if you prefer, leave the skins on for extra texture and flavor).
Cut the potatoes into thin wedges or fries, making sure they’re evenly sized for consistent cooking.
Toss the potato wedges in olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning (or paprika if you prefer a milder flavor).
Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer for even crispiness.
Step 2: Bake the Fries
Bake the potatoes for 30–35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
While the fries bake, cook the turkey bacon in a pan until crispy, then crumble it into small bits. Set aside.
Step 3: Top and Serve
Once the fries are crispy and golden, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
Return to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and top with crumbled turkey bacon and chopped green onions for garnish.
🍽️ Serving Suggestions:
Serve with a side of ranch dressing, sour cream, or spicy mayo for dipping.
Great as a side for burgers, fried chicken, or grilled shrimp.
Perfect for game day or as a late-night snack!
🧊 Storage & Reheating:
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Reheat by placing in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10–15 minutes to restore crispiness.
