Instructions

Begin by preparing a batch of Crispy Sweet Potato Fries. Of course, if you aren’t into sweet potato fries, you can go with your favorite homemade or store-bought fry.
Add the avocado oil to a non-stick skillet and heat to medium-high. Add the sliced onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent and begins to brown around the edges, about 5 to 8 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue sautéing, stirring occasionally until the onion is deeply brown and caramelized, about 40 minutes.
While the onion is caramelizing and the fries are baking, make the special sauce. Simply stir all of the ingredients together in a bowl and set aside. Do not that the sauce will become more flavorful as it sits, so if you can make it 1 day ahead of time, feel free to do so!
Use a spatula to transfer the sweet potatoes to an oven-safe serving plate (or you can leave them on the baking sheet and simply scoot them closer together).
Add your cheese of choice followed by the caramelized onions. Place in the hot oven (it should be around 415 from baking the fries) and allow the cheese to melt - about 5 minutes.
Remove the plate (or baking sheet) from the oven and add the special sauce on top. Be sure to serve on top of a heat-safe surface and let your people know the plate is hot!
