Ingredients
- 2 lbs frozen French fries
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped pickles
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp ketchup

- 2 tbsp chopped green onions
Instructions
1. Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Spread the frozen French fries out on a baking sheet and bake them for 25-30 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and crispy.
3. In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook the beef until it’s browned and fully cooked, about 7-10 minutes.
4. In a large casserole dish, start by layering the cooked French fries. Top them with the browned ground beef, followed by the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, and finally the crumbled bacon.
5. Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6. Once the casserole is out of the oven, top it with the diced tomatoes, pickles, mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and chopped green onions. Serve the Loaded Cheeseburger Bacon Fry Casserole hot and enjoy every bite!
Notes
For the best texture, opt for straight-cut or crinkle-cut frozen French fries. Avoid shoestring fries, as they may become too crispy in the casserole.
You can use regular or thick-cut bacon for this recipe. For extra crispiness, you can bake the bacon in the oven before crumbling it over the casserole.
If you prefer a different cheese flavor, feel free to experiment with other varieties like Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or even a blend of cheeses.
