Ingredients:
1 pound frozen French fries (or homemade fries)
1 cup pizza sauce
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup sliced pepperoni
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
Cook the Fries:
Prepare the frozen French fries according to the package instructions, either by baking or frying them until they are crispy. If making homemade fries, cut potatoes into fry shapes, toss with oil, and bake at 425°F (220°C) until golden and crispy.
Preheat the Oven:
If you’re using the oven to melt the cheese later, preheat it to 400°F (200°C).
Layer the Ingredients:
Once the fries are cooked, spread them out on a large baking sheet.
Pour the pizza sauce evenly over the fries.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the top.
Add the sliced pepperoni evenly across the cheese. If using, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning on top.
Bake:
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish and Serve:
Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy your cheesy pepperoni pizza fries!
