Potatoes are on Sale

This week potatoes were on sale, 5 lb bag for $1.99 so we are eating potatoes. Here is a simple and easy recipe for home made french fries.

When you purchase bags of potatoes you get some big and small spuds. Pick out 6 small spuds about the same size. This is a good way to use the smaller potatoes in a bag.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Clean and slice potatoes. You will slice the potatoes 3 times lengthwise to get 4 sections of potatoes then 3 to 4 slices lengthwise to create the fries.

Place these on a cookie sheet. Drizzle 1 Tablespoon of olive oil on the potatoes and mix to coat all fries. Salt and Pepper to taste.

Bake for 15 minutes, then flip fries. They will be a little hard to flip at this point in time and may stick a little, this is okay.

Bake for 20 minutes and they should be golden brown and a little crunchy. The second bake time is for your taste so play with it a little to get the best and healthiest french fries in town!

Enjoy!
