Loaded Food Truck Mexican Nacho Fries, 'cause sometimes you just. have. to.

That's right, my friend. This is where we're going today, and it's AWESOME.

What you're looking at here is a mashup of all the late-night, badass food we love. (even if we don't admit it in everyday daylight hours.) Imagine chili fries, poutine, and cheesy nachos all had a Mexican love affair and turned into this hot mess.

We've got sweet potato fries (or regular fries, your choice!), covered with melted white cheddar cheese and every Mexican-esq topping I could think of: roasted corn, black beans, guac, cherry tomatoes (salsa!), jalapeños, cilantro, red onions, and lime.

Then the whole thing gets drizzled in the best creamy/ spicy sauce we're calling chipotle crema. Plant the rest of the crema directly in front of you and give each and every fry an extra dunk on the way to your mouth.

If I ever have a food truck, I'm so serving Mexican Nacho Fries. They will rock your world.

You know we usually do the healthy food thing here, right? Well, you should see my mind trying to work the ‘nacho fries are good for my body' angle. Ha!

• Sweet potatoes = healthy
• Corn = healthy
• Avocados = healthy
• Tomatoes = healthy
• Black beans = healthy

See? Nachos fries are basically healthy food. (Just for a second, let's not think about the bucket loads of crema and handfuls of cheese.)

I've used store-bought sweet potato fries (gasp!) because it seemed like the right thing to do for nacho fries. Most of the time I like to make things like French fries from scratch because it's really pretty easy. But … sometimes low-brow is totally the way to go.

At least once a month, when we're chillin' with our besties Michael and Jorge, 5-minute Superfries always end up on the table. You need to know, Michael is an amazing cook. He's made me some of the best meals I've ever had. But sometimes (like, once a month sometimes) quick, easy, and no-shame opening a freezer bag is totally the way to go.

If you want to get fancy and slice up some sweet potatoes, go for it. No one will judge you for going the store-bought route when you throw down a platter of Mexican Nacho Fries. Trust me on this one.

Notes

I went the easy route and used store-bought sweet potato fries. You could do the same, or slice some sweet potatoes into fries, drizzle them with oil, and bake them for 20-30 minutes.
