Mexican Fries Recipe
Report
These loaded Mexican fries are a healthier spin on a fast food favorite. Crispy sweet potato fries are layered with all the Mexican fixings and then drizzled with a spicy chipotle crema. They're an easy and satisfying appetizer or snack, and they take just 30 minutes to make!

Ingredients
- 2 lb frozen fries see notes
- 1 cup frozen corn

Chipotle Crema
- ½ cup Greek-style plain yogurt
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 1-2 tablespoons pureed chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
Toppings

Top serve
- Guacamole, cilantro, lime wedges
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake the sweet potato fries for 20 minutes, turning halfway.
- Place the frozen corn on a small baking sheet and roast in the oven with the fries for 15-20, or until they are light brown in a few spots.
- Make the chipotle crema by mixing the yogurt, mayonnaise, and chipotle peppers in a small bowl. Start with 1 tablespoon of the chipotle and add more to taste/ heat preference.
- When the fries have finished baking, layer them with the cheddar cheese, roasted corn, and any or all of the toppings. Bake for another 7-8 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
- Remove the nachos fries from the oven and top with some guacamole, cilantro, lime, and a little chipotle crema. Serve the remaining crema on the side.
Notes
- We love these both with sweet potato fries and with regular french fries - choose your favorite!
