LOADED CHEESE FRIES

Steps:

• Read the notes before beginning the recipe.
• Preheat oven to 375F. Spread frozen fries out onto a large baking sheet. Check the back of your package to see how long fries should be baked.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5-6 minutes.
• Once onions are soft, add garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. Add ground beef and cook, breaking up the beef with a wooden spoon, until beef is no longer pink. Add taco seasoning and water, then stir until incorporated. Drain the excess fat. Set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add Italian sausage and cook, breaking up the sausage with a wooden spoon, until it is no longer pink. Set aside.
• Add the butter to a medium saucepan and heat over medium heat until melted.
• Once butter has melted, add the flour and whisk until mixture begins to bubble and foam. Continue to whisk for another 1 minute.
• Slowly pour in the milk while whisking constantly. Once milk is incorporated, allow it to reach a simmer, whisking occasionally. Continue to simmer until milk mixture begins to thicken, it should coat the back of a spoon. This took me about 3-5 minutes.
• Turn off the heat and add cheese, 1 cup at a time, stirring after each addition until completely melted. If the cheese isn't melting, turn the stove back on to the lowest heat to help.
• Once all the cheese has been melted, stir in the salt and cayenne. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings to your preference.
• Once fries are done, remove from oven and top with the ground meat, cheese sauce, diced red onions, jalapeños, diced tomatoes, sour cream and diced green onions. Dig in!
