Skip the line at the fast food joint and make your own nacho fries at home!
Who doesn’t love a plate of crispy, golden fries coated in nacho cheese sauce? Add some zesty seasoning to the mix, and you’ve got yourself a mouthwatering treat that’s perfect for any occasion. In this blog post, we’ll dive into the art of making homemade nacho fries that are guaranteed to tantalize your taste buds and have you coming back for seconds.
You don’t have to be a top-notch chef to make the coveted “Taco Bell” nacho fries at home. With a simple trip to Wal Mart, you can have a tasty and inexpensive meal for the whole family. Start with a seasoned bag of frozen potatoes. We aren’t using just any potatoes, the key is to buy the Checker’s Rally’s Famous Seasoned French Fries.
Following the instructions on the bag, preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and place the French Fries on a 11 x 17 baking sheet. Cook the fries for 20-25 minutes according to your crispness preference. If you are going the extra mile with a deep fryer, preheat the frying oil to 375 degrees Fahrenheit with the fryer half-full of oil. Fill the fryer basket halfway with the fries and cook for 4 and a half minutes or until golden crispy. Place the cooked French Fries on a paper towel to drain.
Once you have yourself some delicious and crispy seasoned French Fries, it’s time to add the finishing touch. According to personal preference, you can add as much nacho cheese sauce as you’d like. The trick is using the Taco Bell Mild Salsa Con Queso from your local Wal Mart for that authentic nacho fry taste. We recommend warming the cheese in the microwave oven until gooey and melty.
Once your nacho fries are piled high, it’s time to dig in and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Whether you’re serving them as a crowd-pleasing appetizer for a party or enjoying them as a satisfying snack all to yourself, these homemade nacho fries are sure to mimic the real thing and save you some money.
