Today is National French Fries Day!
In honor of this special day, I’ve prepared this delicious post of Homemade French Fries with Balsamic Dipping Sauce.
Around here, we love french fries and we eat them quite a bit. But, because we love them so much, it’s nice to switch up the recipe now and then. Sometimes, I add different spices and seasonings to the fries and other times, I just serve them with a fun dipping sauce. This recipe for homemade french fries is my go-to recipe. It’s simple and the fries always come out crispy and delicious.
The balsamic dipping sauce is actually a quick and easy salad dressing recipe that I threw together one day and it has quickly become a family favorite.
We use it all the time…on just about everything! And the girls just love it on french fries!
Here’s the recipe…
