Loaded chili cheese fries on a platter with melted cheddar and sour cream

Broil the last 2 minutes if you want the cheese extra bubbly — but watch it close.

How to make it

  1. Bake the fries. Spread the fries on a lined baking sheet and bake per the bag directions until crispy.
  2. Heat the chili. While the fries bake, warm the chili in a pot on the stove, stirring now and then.
  3. Load them up. Pile the hot fries on a platter, spoon the chili all over, then shower with cheddar.
  4. Melt it. Stick the platter back in the oven 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese is melty.
  5. Top and serve. Add sour cream and green onions if you want, then dig in while it's hot.
