What to Pair Your Baked Avocado Fries With

When it comes to finding the perfect sidekick for your baked avocado fries, you can’t go wrong with any of these delicious options.

For a classic combination, try pairing your fries with a juicy Queso Burger. The savory flavors of the burger will complement the creamy avocado perfectly.

If you’re looking for something a little lighter, a salad is always a good option. We recommend topping your salad with some crispy bacon bits and a tangy vinaigrette – it’s the perfect way to balance out the richness of the avocado fries.

Finally, if you want to really indulge, why not pair your fries with a decadent chocolate milkshake? The sweetness of the shake will bring out the natural flavor of the avocado, making for a truly heavenly experience.
