- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F. Spread the frozen fries on a baking sheet and toss with olive oil. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy.
