Best Sweet Potato Fries To Use

Honestly, you can use any sweet potato fry you have. I like to reach for the classic sweet potato fries. You can use waffle fries, string fries, etc.

Just cook the fries as directed on the package. Or if you want to make homemade fries you are more than welcome to do that.

  • Return to oven to cook and melt all the cheese.
  • Once ready top with sour cream, lime juice, etc.

Topping Ideas For Sweet Potato Loaded Fries

  • Sour cream
  • Jalapenos
  • Lime Juice
  • Salsa Pico De Gallo

Variations To Recipe

Meat | Consider swapping out the chicken and add in the leftover roast, bbq pulled pork, ground beef, etc. Any cooked meat could add tons of flavor.

Toppings | Swap out the toppings for whatever you would like. Guacamole or avocado, bbq sauce, red onions, etc.

Do These Loaded Fries Store Well

The fries do not store well, as they will soften once they are in the fridge. Only make what you plan to eat, otherwise the fries will sog up with all the toppings on them.

Make Meatless Loaded Fries

If you want a vegetarian option, leave the meat off. If you are vegan you can swap the dairy ingreidents with a vegan alternative.

This recipe is highly adaptable so have fun and get creative. You can even raid your fridge to use up items that need to be eaten before expiring.
