Baked potatoes aren’t really my thing. I never can seem to fit all of the delicious toppings that I want inside the potato!

Solution: Loaded Baked Potato Fries.

Now, all you have to do is get a big enough bowl and pile on the toppings!

I just chose some of the traditional toppings that I would put on a baked potato, but you could get really creative and make an italian style with tomatoes, sautéed spinach, italian seasoning, mozzarella chunks and italian sausage! Let your imagination run wild.

And don’t forget to pile it high!

P.S. How cute are these little baby cast iron skillets? Erin bought them for me! So sweet. Who wants a cookie baked mini skillet with a scoop of ice cream. That’s TOTALLY going to be my next recipe in them. Mmm!
