Spread half of the frozen French fries in the bottom of the baking dish. Top with half of the cooked beef and a drizzle of ketchup, mustard, and mayo.
4. Layer It Up:
Add the rest of the fries, the remaining beef, and repeat the drizzle of sauces. Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella evenly on top.
