Ingredients

• 16 ounces Frozen French fries
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Cooked bacon, crumbled
• 3 tablespoons Green onions, thinly sliced
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) or according to the package instructions for the frozen French fries.

Step 2

Spread the frozen French fries in an even layer on a baking sheet. Bake them in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden and crispy.

Step 3

While the fries are baking, prepare the other ingredients. Crumble the cooked bacon if not already done, slice the green onions, and measure out the shredded cheeses.

Step 4

Once the French fries are finished baking, remove them from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).

Step 5

Transfer the fries to an oven-safe dish or a cast-iron skillet, spreading them in an even layer.

Step 6

Sprinkle the fries with shredded cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese, ensuring they are evenly covered.

Step 7

Scatter the crumbled bacon over the cheese layer.

Step 8

Place the dish in the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese has fully melted and is bubbly.

Step 9

Carefully remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the green onions on top for a fresh pop of color and flavor.

Step 10

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 11

Serve the French Fry Melt immediately with a dollop of sour cream on the side or drizzled on top for dipping.
