Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 20-to-22-ounce package frozen waffle fries; 4 slices bacon; 1 1/2 cups shredded mild yellow cheddar cheese (about 6 ounces); 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (about 2 ounces); 1 tablespoon cornstarch; 2 tablespoons chopped pimientos; 1/4 teaspoon mustard powder; 1/4 cup sour cream; Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper; 2 scallions, sliced

Directions

Bake the waffle fries as the label directs. Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels, then chop into bite-size pieces.
Combine the cheddar, mozzarella, cornstarch, pimientos and mustard powder in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Transfer to a medium saucepan; add 1/3 cup water and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the cheese melts and the mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sour cream and season with salt and pepper. Divide the waffle fries among plates; top with the cheese sauce, bacon and scallions.
