Healthy Cheese & Bacon Fries


Last night after our dinner dance, I was craving something cheesy!!  But it was late. Thank goodness my husband talked me out of making a decision I would regret, because this afternoon I created a healthy replacement!!  Who says clean eating is no fun!!  I feel like I'm cheating!!

What you need:


1 Tbsp of Olive Oil
Sea salt
Ground pepper
2 Sweet Potatoes
1/2 cup Shredded Mozzerella Cheese (preferably hand shredded - not the bag stuff - they put sawdust in those bags)
4 pieces of crispy turkey bacon crunched into pieces
Chives are optional
(Approximately 2 servings)

1.  Preheat oven at 425F. Cut your potatoes into fries. 


2. Put them in a ziplock bag, with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Zip. Shake to spread oil evenly. 


3. Lay fries out on baking sheet. 


4. Bake for 10 minutes. Pull out and flip fries. Bake another ten minutes. Pull pan out. Put foil with fries to the side. (For crispier fries, bake longer). 

5. Turn the broiler on HIGH. Put a smaller piece of foil on your pan. 


6.  I made this recipe using the 21 day fix portion containers. Fill one or two yellow containers (depending on your choice & meal plan) with the fries.  Place on pan.  

7. Fill the blue container with cheese. Sprinkle cheese over fries. Use half the bacon and sprinkle on top of cheese. 


8. Place in oven for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted!

9. Add chives if desired and enjoy!
