Ingredients
  

4 large russet potatoes

6 slices of thick-cut bacon, chopped

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup sour cream

1/2 cup green onions, chopped

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for drizzling

Instructions
 

Prepare the Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry, and cut each potato into thick-cut fries (about 1/2 inch wide).

    Season and Roast: In a large bowl, toss the cut fries with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.

      Cook the Bacon: While the fries are baking, cook the chopped bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

        Combine Toppings: In a separate bowl, mix together the shredded cheddar cheese and cooked bacon. Set aside.

          Create the Loaded Fries: Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the bacon and cheese mixture evenly over the hot fries. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.

            Garnish and Serve: Remove the loaded fries from the oven and drizzle sour cream on top. Finish with chopped green onions for a fresh touch. Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your delicious loaded bacon cheese fries!
