Description

Forget the tortilla chip and tap into some crispy waffle fries. Loaded with cheese, onion, olives, tomatoes, and jalapeno peppers, this one is sure to please.

Ingredients

  • ½ bags (22 Oz. Size) Ore-Ida Waffle Fries
  • ¼ cups Sour Cream
  • 2 Tablespoons Sriracha
  • 6 slices Bacon, Cooked And Crumbled
  • 1 cup Shredded Monterey Jack Cheese
  • 1 cup Shredded Colby-jack Cheese
  • ¼ cups Onion, Diced
  • ¼ cups Pickled Jalapeños
  • ¼ cups Black Olives
  • ½ whole Tomato, Diced
  • 2 whole Green Onions, diced

Preparation

Begin by cooking your fries in the oven according to the directions on the package. During this time, prepare the remaining ingredients.

Mix the sour cream and the Sriracha sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.

When the waffle fries are done cooking (they should be relatively crisp), mix the bacon, cheeses, onion, jalapeno peppers, and black olives in another bowl. Top the fries with the mixture, then place back into the oven for about 5-7 more minutes or until the cheese is nice and melted.

Arrange on your serving tray (I like to use a fajita plate for this recipe) and sprinkle with the chopped tomato and green onions. Place a dollop of the sour cream mixture right on top of the fries, and dig in.

Regular nachos just met their match with these fulfilling and ever-so-satisfying Idaho nachos.

What is Sriracha, is it a hot sauce, like Chulula?

I’m from Idaho and it never occured to me to do this. For shame. I’ll give it a go. Thanks!

Idaho nachos are my favorite appetizer at The Merry Piglets in Jackson, WY. Thanks for sharing!

This is creative & yummy! I will get the fries a bit more crispy next time but absolutely no complaints – simply delish!

I made these last week for my husband’s birthday and they were the hit of the night! You have to make sure you cook the waffle fries really crisp, and flip them a couple of times during cooking so they are crisp on all sides. My husband still can’t stop talking about how great these were! Thanks!!!
