Barbara's Notes + Tips
- Cook the potatoes until they are crispy, make sure they do not overlap on the cookie sheet while you are baking them.
- Make sure the waffle fries have cooled completely before topping.
- You can make the potatoes and the grape mixture ahead of time, just don't assemble until you are ready to eat or they will get soggy.
