Cheesy Loaded Beef Fries 
Ingredients:
1 bag (1 lb) frozen French fries
1 pound ground beef
1 small onion, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup marinara sauce (or your favorite tomato sauce)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Optional: sour cream, green onions, or jalapeños for garnish Directions:
Prepare the Fries:
Cook the frozen French fries according to the package instructions until crispy.
Cook the Ground Beef:
While the fries are baking, heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain any excess fat.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
Pour in the marinara sauce and let it simmer for a few minutes until heated through.
Assemble the Loaded Fries:
Once the fries are ready, spread them out on a large, oven-safe platter or baking sheet.
Evenly distribute the beef mixture over the fries.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on top.
Melt the Cheese:
Place the assembled fries back in the oven for a few minutes, just until the cheese melts and becomes bubbly.
Garnish and Serve:
Remove from the oven and garnish with sour cream, chopped green onions, or sliced jalapeños if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
