Beef Chili Cheese Fries
Ingredients:
– 1 pound ground beef

– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes
– 1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
– 2 tablespoons chili powder
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 bag frozen French fries
– 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
– Optional toppings: sliced jalapeños, sour cream, chopped green onions
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven as per the instructions on the package of frozen French fries. While the oven is preheating, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the frozen fries in a single layer. Bake according to package instructions until golden and crispy.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink. Add the diced onions and garlic, and sauté until the onions are soft and translucent.
3. Stir in the diced tomatoes, kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
4. Once the fries are ready, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the cooked beef chili over the top. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously over the chili.
5. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6. Remove the Beef Chili Cheese Fries from the oven and let them cool slightly. Add your favorite toppings such as sliced jalapeños, a dollop of sour cream, or chopped green onions.
