Hangover Food Part 1: Bacon & Cheddar Cheese Fries

    I don't like to get really really drunk anymore because the older you get the longer it takes to recover. I am also past the point in my life where that is what I want to do. Yes I am a beer enthusiast, but it is more about discovering new beers and enjoying the flavors and styles. Every now and then I over-do it a little and even though it doesn't seem like I drank a lot, I feel like I got hit by a garbage truck. Especially when you are drinking beers that have 8-13% alcohol, you're gonna want to eat something fatty to soak up all the alcohol. I call these cures : "Hangover Food" .

   Whether you get fries from fast food, take out, sit down restaurant, or even frozen fries, in my opinion fries are great, I love fries of all kinds. Making loaded or cheese fries makes fries even better.

   You can pile on green onions, chili, jalapenos, sour cream, bacon, cheese. I kept it simple and piled on lots of bacon and sharp cheddar cheese. Fries need to be well seasoned too. I like to season my fries with garlic powder, chile powder, paprika, black pepper and salt. Another must have is a good dipping sauce. To go with the bacon and sharp cheddar, I love to dip these fries in ranch. Hydration, rest, and Loaded cheese fries and you are sure to be cured fast!
