Ingredients and substitutions

• Olive oil – or any other neutral cooking oil like canola or grapeseed oil.
• Russet potatoes – you could also use sweet potatoes or save time by using frozen fries.
• Salt & pepper – to taste.
• Cheddar cheese – any kind of shredded cheese would work here like mozzarella.
• Bacon – turkey bacon is a great low-calorie alternative.
• Green onions – chives would work in a pinch.
• Pickled jalapenos – substitute for banana peppers for less heat or leave them out altogether if you don't like spice.
• Ranch dressing – use whatever dipping sauce you're craving like sour cream, guacamole or spicy mayo.
