Instructions
Bake or fry Fries. I usually get the best quality frozen fries and bake them with a drizzle of olive oil until crunchy. It takes about 15-18 minutes until I reach a perfect fries. You can also deep fry them or use homemade french fries. Whatever you like using it would be okay.
Make Chili. I make my own chili from the scratch and I have been making it this way for years. You can make your favorite chili recipe or use mine.
Now when you have both fries and chili done, put it together. I like taking a bowl and making individual servings. My boys do not eat tomatoes so they actually build their own chili fries.
Add fries in the bowl, ladle HOT chili over it, sprinkle cheese. While the cheese is melting due to hotness, prep the rest of the toppings to add on top of the chili fries. Sometimes I would microwave chili fries with cheese just to get that bubbling cheese... you can also use the conventional oven but make sure to use oven-safe dish/bowl.
