Bacon Cheese Fries Recipe
Give me all the cheese fries. All of them. There’s just simply nothing better than old-fashioned fries smothered in cheese, crispy bacon, fresh green onion, and ranch! Forget the sour cream and layer on the savory ranch, both in seasoning mix and creamy dressing. Do I have your attention yet?
I love the combo of cheese I picked for this recipe, but feel free to get creative! Pepper jack, American, gruyere, Swiss, fontina, and provolone are all great choices! Try some brown sugar bacon for a sweet and spicy twist.

How to Store
While you technically can save these fries for later, I recommend only making as much as you think you’ll eat in one sitting, since they tend to turn soggy when reheated.
Serving Suggestions
We’ve got plenty of tasty appetizers to serve along with the bacon ranch Fries. I like pairing these with spicy green chile taquitos, or a batch of hearty fried Buffalo wings. For another hearty side, I’ll sometimes prepare Swedish meatballs.
And of course, you can’t forget to add the perfect margarita to the line-up. Gotta wash those cheese fries down with something, after all.
Delicious. Add ground beef to make meal. Teenagers loved it.
