Notes
Red onion and tomato: Produce sizes vary, as do tastes in loaded fries, so adjust these amounts as you see fit!
Cooking methods for sweet potato waffle fries: We always make frozen fries in the air fryer for the best crisp! Preheat to 360 for a few minutes, then cook the fries for about 12 minutes, tossing halfway through.
Ingredient suggestions: Alexia Waffle Fries are by far the best frozen fries we've ever had - we wouldn't use anything else for this recipe! To make these loaded fries even better, we recommend using our homemade Chipotle Mayo. It tastes better than store-bought and its smoky flavor perfectly complements the sweet potato!
Serving suggestion: Kick these fries up a notch with an optional side of mashed avocado, seasoned with a bit of lime juice and sea salt. Dollop it over the fries before serving or simply dip into it for an additional creamy and delicious flavor!
