I really love going to those restaurants and ordering those delicious, but sinful calorie-packed fries covered in cheese. And let's not forget the scallions and greasy bacon and then drenched in ranch dressing!! Yes, it's all wonderful, but not really affordable for most families. When we order an appetizer, it's a splurge. We are a family of five and the average meal out at a sit-down restaurant will at the least cost $38.00 and at the most $45.00. You can have the cheese fries at home and not have to tip the waitress! As a mom, I do appreciate a hug or kiss for a job well done!! Follow the recipe below for cheese fries at home...you could call it cheese fries on a shoe-string!
Prepare fries according to package.
Rinse and Chop scallions--as many as you desire--
Prepare bacon in microwave, cool, and crumble
In the last five minutes of cooking time, top with cheese ( I like to use mozzeralla and mexican mix, colby also works well.) Add scallions and bacon on top of cheese and place in oven for remaining five minutes. You want the cheese to melt throughout so you may have to adjust time according to your oven. Remove and use spatula to place on plate with ranch dressing on the side. Have the cola ready because you know you're gonna taste them before they're cool enough to eat!! I speak from experience.
