Summer is just around the corner and I’m getting ready for all things sunshiny and warm.
And with Memorial Day weekend almost here, I’m ready to break in the unofficial start of summer in a delicious way. With lots of food, of course!
Do you have a lot of activities planned for the summer? Any trips, barbecues, parties, graduations, weddings? The list goes on and on, am I right?
The hubster and I have a few small trips planned, some fun in the sun, and lots of grilling out. There’s just nothing like a meal prepared on the grill or a delicious dessert that just screams summer. Mmm mmm good!

And I like to go to Walmart for my summer needs. I just love how convenient shopping there is. You can shop in store or have your groceries brought to your car via their Online Grocery Service. How convenient is that?! You can also shop in-store, too, for when you want to browse around.
When I was shopping at Walmart last week, I stumbled across Hunt’s Best Ever Ketchup. Have you tried it before? Hunt’s thickest, richest, best ever Ketchup. In my mind, ketchup is one of those must-have summer essentials. From burgers to hotdogs, dips, casseroles and more, ketchup is never far from me. Want to lear more? Head over to FoodYouLove.com

I have a weakness for fries. I try not to eat them too often (hello, carbs and endless calories), but sometimes, you just gotta give in. Especially in the summer. And especially with these cheeseburger fries.
I mean, the crispy, potato-y crunch from the fries, the ground beef, cheese (lots of cheese!), lettuce, tomatoes, and Hunt’s Best Ever Ketchup make pretty much the best combo ever.

And like most of my recipes, this loaded cheeseburger fries recipe is a breeze to whip up. But, you knew that was coming, right? To start, you’ll want to bake some frozen french fries (any kind you like) according to the package directions. While that’s in the oven, it’s time to prepare the ‘burger’ topping. In a large skillet, you’ll brown some lean ground beef, along with a combination of spices. And that secret ingredient that gives it the burger taste? Worcestershire sauce!
After the fries are baked and the ground beef is prepared, you’ll start to prepare the loaded fries. Sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese on the fries and then place into the oven for several minutes to melt. Remove from the oven, top with the burger mixture, and then another layer of cheese. Pop it back into the oven to get all melty and ooey-gooey!
Then, it’s time for the toppings! Sprinkle some shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes over the fries, followed by a good drizzling of Hunt’s Best Ever Ketchup.
Easy peasy and oh-so delicious, friends!
Once you dig into these Loaded Cheeseburger Fries, you’ll love the taste, flavor and texture of this tasty appetizer. Perfect for summer, parties, get-togethers, and more, these cheeseburger fries will be the hit of the season!
