Amarillo Cheese Fries and Dip - Like the Lone Star- Copycat

shelbyrose's Note:

When our DD and SIL came for a visit, they introduced us to two mouthwatering recipes which they prepared as a birthday treat. They prepared these fries along with Marinated Grilled Steaks, like The Outback. Needless to say, it was an absolutely delicious meal. Hope you enjoy this as much as we did.

The dip was really the shining star here. You could probably use just about any french fry you like. I had several partial bags of cheese leftover and just dumped them on with a few jalapeno slices. Nice & easy alternative to ketchup!

These are very tasty! I LOVE the sauce, it is very good on mexican food and burgers. I am thinking about making a jar of the sauce to have on hand for whatever! Thanks so much!
