Recipe Notes For Pizza Fries
French Fries: Technically, you can use any type of frozen french fry for this recipe. Just make sure that they are cooked to a crisp perfection. While it may be that shoestring fries aren’t for everyone (blasphemy), they are the best at creating the “crust”. However, fry experimentation is encouraged!
Loaded: I mentioned earlier that one of my favorite things about this recipe is the fact that it’s so versatile. If you love toppings, there is no need to stop at pepperoni! This basic little concoction can easily become a top-notch loaded pizza fries recipe. Add whatever you like, from green peppers to olives, and beyond!
Garlic: It’s easy peasy to make these football favorites for garlic lovers. My recommendation for a great garlic pizza fries recipe is to simply sprinkle the pizza sauce with garlic powder before broiling to give it a kick. It doesn’t hurt to pump up the fries themselves with a touch of garlic salt as well. Yum!
