My kids loved these fries! I even added bacon bits, so good!
Made these for the game day and they disappeared so quick! Everyone wanted the recipe.
Just ok. Would’ve been better if the cheese was more melty. Dissatisfied.
Paprika with fries? Sounds weird, but I gave it a shot. Too spicy for me though. 1 star.
I think you might have used too much cayenne! Maybe try less next time? I love this recipe!
So easy to make! I forgot cilantro but it didn’t matter. Will try again with it next time.
These fries were amazing! The blend of spices really brought them to life! Will definitely make again.
Fries? With cheddar and jalapenos? Is that even a thing? Sounds kinda weird to me.
I tried this recipe too, and it was fantastic! The spices were just right. Can’t wait to make them again!
👍 Yummy!
These look so good! Can’t wait to try them. 🥔🧀
I didn’t have jalapenos but used bell peppers instead. Still tasty but not the same kick. Next time I’ll stick to the recipe!
What a waste of potatoes. They turned out soggy! Something went wrong here…
