Chipotle Sweet Potatoes with Queso Fresco

Chipotle Sweet Potatoes with Queso Fresco

Chipotle Sweet Potatoes with La Vaquita® Queso Fresco adds an authentic Mexican twist to sweet potato fries with the addition of chipotle chile powder and queso fresco.

Sweet potatoes fries are so delicious with the soft center and crispy exterior. The sweet potato fries are delicious by themselves. However, I have taken them over the top by using waffle fries and seasoning them with chipotle chile powder and topping them with crumbled La Vaquita® Queso Fresco. It adds an authentic Mexican taste without any extra effort.

I love learning about how people turn family recipes into a product and into a family business to support their family.
