Ingredients

  • 14 oz frozen shoestring french fries
  • 15 oz can chili with beans
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese divided
  • sour cream and chives, optional garnish

Instructions

  • Spread frozen fries in an even layer on a cookie sheet. 
  • Bake at 420 degrees for 18 - 20 minutes being sure to stir fries halfway through baking, this helps them crisp up.
  • Meanwhile, heat chili in a small saucepan over medium-low heat stirring occasionally.
  • When fries are done, transfer them to a 2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle 1 cup cheese over fries.
  • Spread warmed chili over cheese. Top chili with remaining 1 cup cheese.
  • Return to oven and bake an additional 5 - 8 minutes or until cheese is fully melted. Serve with optional sour cream and chives.
