Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2
In a mixing bowl, toss the cut potatoes in olive oil and salt, then spread them out in a single layer on the prepared baking tray.
3
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the fries are golden and crispy.
MUSHROOMS
4
While the fries are baking, prepare the mushrooms. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat, then add the chopped mushrooms.
5
Saute the mushrooms until they release their liquid and start to brown, about 5 minutes. While the mushrooms are cooking, mix together the smoked paprika, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, coriander, and chipotle powder.
6
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the mushrooms and stir to coat evenly, then remove from heat.
BBQ SAUCE
7
To make the BBQ sauce, combine all sauce ingredients in a saucepan and simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
ASSEMBLY

Take the cooked fries out of the oven, top with the spiced mushrooms, vegan cheese shreds, and return to the oven for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese has melted.

Once the cheese has melted, remove the fries from the oven. Drizzle homemade BBQ sauce over the fries and sprinkle with pickled jalapenos.
