Notes

Venison and Sweet Potato Nacho Fries are best served the day they are made. If they are stored, the fries will become soggy. Therefore, if you're looking to keep these as leftovers, I'd recommend reheating the fries in the air fryer (the next day), or making fresh fries and using leftover taco meat.
