Baked Ranch Fries

Ingredients

• 5 Organic Potatoes cut into sticks or wedges, the smaller you cut them the shorter the cook time
  (Use approximately 1- 1 ½ medium-large sized potatoes per person *Yukon gold potatoes work well but you can use your favorite variety, even sweet potatoes!
• ¼ cup organic virgin olive oil
• 1 t salt
• 2 t black pepper
• Optional- 1 t cayenne pepper, 1 t garlic powder or any blend of herbs and spices that you like.  Be creative!

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 F

Combine potatoes oil, salt, pepper and desired spices in a large bowl.

Toss to coat each piece of potato in oil and spice mixture.

Spread potatoes onto baking pans making sure they are evenly spaced and not touching.  *It is important to leave enough room in order for fries to crisp up properly

Place pans in oven and bake for 45-45 minutes, depending on size. Stir fries every 10- 15 minutes to promote even cooking and prevent burnt edges.

*If your oven has a convection setting, use it.  The circulation of air really helps the fries to crisp up and brown nicely.
