Ingredients

  • 32 oz bag of frozen french fries
  • 3 large raw sausages or bratwurst
  • 8 oz thick cut bacon
  • 1 .87oz package brown gravy mix
  • 2 cups colby jack cheese
  • 7 oz mild irish cheddar cheese
  • fresh parsley for garnish.

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425℉. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place frozen fries onto baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes until nice and crispy, stirring at the 15 minute mark.
    * Leave the oven on after the fries finished baking for toasting the cheese.
  • Meanwhile, chop the sausages and bacon into small pieces, and cook on medium/high heat for 10 minutes, until cooked and bacon is crispy.
  • Prepare gravy mix with water according to package instructions.
  • When fries are finished, pour gravy over fries.
  • Sprinkle on the cheese, and then spread the cooked bacon and sausage evenly over the fries.
    Bake for another 5 minutes to melt the cheese and crisp up the meat. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

Freezing not recommended for storage due to using pre-frozen fries. 
Store any leftovers in an airtight container refrigerated for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer at 350F for 5 minutes for best results, as a microwave can make the fries taste dry.
