Ingredients
- 1 bag Frozen French fries
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 small Onion, diced
- 1 medium Tomato, diced
- 1 medium Jalapeño, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Taco seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
- Spread the frozen French fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake according to package instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until crispy and golden.
- Once the fries are golden, sprinkle the cooked ground beef evenly over them. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and return to the oven for a few minutes, just until the cheese melts.
- Remove from the oven and add your fresh toppings: diced onions, diced tomato, and sliced jalapeños.
- Drizzle the sour cream over the loaded fries and sprinkle with taco seasoning, salt, and pepper for an extra kick.
- Finish with a garnish of freshly chopped cilantro and serve while hot.
