This is a great dish! My entire family absolutely loved it! Next time I may add some crumbled bacon on top and a bit more cheese - but even without these additions it is a wonderful dish!!

I just love how quick and easy this is to get together and throw on the grill. The use of frozen french fries is a handy shortcut that eliminates the peeling, slicing and dicing and gets you in and out of the kitchen in short order--so nice in the summer months when you don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. I used Ore-Ida steak fries and halved the recipe for the three of us--mine were a tad salty so apparently my fries already had plenty of salt in them. Next time I will use the non-stick aluminum foil for the inside layer that the potatoes are on as that would eliminate any sticking problems. Thanks for sharing this great summertime recipe!
