Ingredients
Taco Fries:
One 22-ounce bag frozen waffle fries
1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil
8 ounces ground beef (85% lean)
1 tablespoon taco seasoning (about half of a 1-ounce package)
1 cup shredded Cheddar
1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
1/2 cup drained pinto beans
1/4 cup pickled jalapenos
1/4 cup sliced black olives
2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 small avocado, chopped
Sour cream, for serving
Creamy Hot Sauce:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
2 tablespoons hot sauce, such as sriracha
Directions
- For the taco fries: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Spread the waffle fries out on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake, stirring once, until golden brown and crisp, about 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon, until brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the taco seasoning, then add 1/4 cup water and simmer until the liquid evaporates, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the waffle fries to a large plate. Mound the beef in the middle, then sprinkle the cheese, lettuce, beans, jalapenos, olives, tomatoes and avocado over the top. Dollop with sour cream.
- For the creamy hot sauce: Mix together the mayonnaise, yellow mustard and hot sauce in a small bowl. Drizzle over the top and serve.
