So. We ate french fries all last week.
Life could be worse, right?
When Alexia Foods asked if I wanted to partner on some recipe development, it was like Santa came early this year…and not just for the kids! I love their brand of french fries, onion rings, and puffs. Their products are made with premium, natural ingredients, and have all kinds of creative flavor combinations.
I do think their products are seasoned perfectly, but I decided to have some fun and take them all up a notch with some great rubs and dipping sauces. Their frozen sides are a perfect complement to any meal, but um, if you’re like me, I could have made any of these the entire meal. Or, if you’re willing to share, this is great game day food, for all you football fans!
