1Prepare the fries by soaking them in an ice bath for 30 minutes to remove excess starch (optional). Drain and pat dry.
2Cook the fries: In an air fryer, preheat to 400°F, lightly spray the fries with avocado oil spray, place in the air fryer basket, and cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking halfway through until crispy.
3Alternatively, cook the fries in an oven by preheating it to 425°F, lightly spraying the fries with avocado oil spray, spreading them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and baking for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden and crispy.
4Cook the beef by heating a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, season with salt, taco seasoning, and garlic powder, and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
5Add 1/4 cup water to the beef and let it simmer until the liquid reduces. Remove from heat.
6Crisp the bacon strips in a pan or microwave, then once cooled, crumble them into pieces.
7Assemble by arranging the crispy fries on a serving platter, sprinkle with low-fat shredded cheddar while hot, top with seasoned ground beef and crumbled bacon, and garnish with chopped green onions and a drizzle of low-cal yogurt ranch.
