When it comes to mealtime, I'm all about quick, easy, tasty, and healthy. More and more, I'm steering away from the processed foods and trying to make things as natural, but yummy, as possible.
One of my favorite simple, but oh so tasty dishes is homemade french fries. They'll take you all of 5 minutes to prepare but can bring a lot of zest to a meal.
1. Slice potatoes into thin wedges, leaving the skins on for added nutrition.
2. Spread a thin layer of olive oil on a shallow baking pan or cookie sheet.
3. Place potatoes in a single layer on the olive oil and brush olive oil over the top. The amount is up to you. I use it sparingly. If you prefer no oil, just spray lightly with cooking spray.
4. Sprinkle with salt and other seasonings as desired. My personal favorite: McCormick's Grill Mates Roasted Garlic and Herb.

5. Bake at 450 for 20-30 minutes until desired crispness.
6. Enjoy! These go great with anything grilled...grilled chicken, maji maji, a turkey burger, you name it!
Happy Eats!
