How to Make Texas Cheese Fries
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Bake frozen french fries according to package directions until golden brown and crispy.
- While fries are baking, prepare the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup ranch dressing and half of the taco seasoning packet (about 1/2 ounce). Set aside.
- In a small container, mix the remaining taco seasoning (1/2 ounce), 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt, and 1/4 teaspoon season salt.
- Once fries are cooked, transfer them to a large paper bag. Sprinkle the remaining taco seasoning mixture evenly over the fries, shaking the bag gently to coat.
- Spread the seasoned fries onto a baking sheet.
- Evenly sprinkle 1.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese and 4 slices of crumbled cooked bacon over the fries.
- Return the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions.
- Serve immediately with the prepared ranch dipping sauce.
