Sweet Potato Fries

Mmmmm! These FRIES are probably not too bad for you, or they may even BORDER on the side of slightly GOOD for you! Very tasty plain or served with Some Dude's Fry Sauce. YUM!


Sweet Potato Fries
2 sweet potatoes
Olive oil
Season salt
Salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut into thin wedges or strips (like fries!). Put in a large ziplock bag and drizzle a tablespoon or two of olive oil over top. Sprinkle a good amount of the season salt over top as well and then seal the bag and shake to coat. You may need to add a little more olive oil and seasoning until there is a nice even coating on all of the fries. Go easy though—you can always add more, but you can't take any away! 

Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with nonstick spray. Spread the fries evenly over the pan, trying to stick with just one layer. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until tender, tossing the fries at the halfway mark and seasoning with some salt and pepper. NOTE: Bake time will vary depending on how thick or thin you cut the fries, so make sure you keep an eye on them while baking! Serve with a yummy burger or the Ham Dandies I posted a few days ago! :)

TIP: Sweet potatoes can be pretty starchy and your fries may seem limp or even soggy. If so, turn your broiler on and toss the fries every so often and they should firm up. I think they taste extra good with a little brown around the edges anyway!
