Tailgate Game Day Dinner – Crispy Smoky Street-Style Loaded Fries
Discover a Tailgate Game Day Dinner recipe inspired by New Orleans street food featuring crispy fries topped with Cajun-spiced sausage, smoky cheese sauce, tangy coleslaw, and green onions.
Place the fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 15 20 minutes, until crispy and golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Grill or cook the sausage rounds over medium high heat until heated through and slightly charred, about 2 3 minutes per side.
In a large bowl, combine coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly and set aside.
To assemble, layer the fries on a serving platter, followed by the sausage, smoky cheese sauce, coleslaw, green onions, and additional shredded smoky cheddar cheese.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
