Ingredients
For the Fries:
- 2 medium sweet potatoes washed, peeled, and cut into fries
- 2 medium russet potatoes washed and cut into fries
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Maria's Toppings (sweet potatoes):
- 1 cup 8 ounces Arla Dofino Chili-Lime Gouda, shredded
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 1 green onion chopped
- 1/2 avocado diced
Josh's Toppings (regular potatoes):
- 1 1/4 cup 10 ounces Arla Dofino Jalapeño Havarti, shredded
- 3 strips cooked bacon chopped
- 1 green onion chopped
- 1 jalapeño sliced
- 1/2 avocado diced
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place sweet potatoes and potatoes on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss until fries are well coated. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste. If the fries are too crowded, you can use two baking sheets. When we use one baking sheet, we keep the sweet potato fries on one side and the regular potatoes on the other side. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and turn the fries over with a spatula. Bake for an additional 20-25 minutes or until fries are crisp around the edges and tender on the inside.
- Remove from oven and top fries with shredded cheese. I like to use Arla Dofino Chili-Lime Gouda on the sweet potato fries. Josh likes to use Arla Dofino Jalapeño Havarti. Return to hot oven and bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from oven and top with desired toppings. For the sweet potato fries, I like to use cilantro, green onion, and avocado. Josh likes to cover his fries with bacon, jalapeño slices, avocado, and sour cream. Serve immediately.
- Note-feel free to add your favorite toppings! We like to make loaded cheese fries when we have friends over. We let our guests top their fries with whatever they want! It is a fun party recipe!
