Hi Everyone. I am happy to share that I am part of a blog series called "When Artists Cook". Each week an artist will share their art which is focused around food, recipes, cooking, and more. This month I am sharing one of my favorite recipes of oven baked french fries. I could eat these every day!

Oven French Fries:
Ingredients:
4 large russet potatoes (peeled if you have fructose
intolerance)
3 Tbsp. Olive Oil
½ - ¾ tsp. Celtic sea salt
¼ tsp. garlic salt
1/8 tsp. ground cumin
¾ tsp. basil leaves
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
¼ tsp. chili powder
Instructions:
Peel and cut potatoes into strips. In a large mixing bowl, drizzle potatoes with
olive oil and add salt and herbs. Stir
until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Place potatoes on a non-stick cookie sheet that has the lips on each
side. I like to spray the pan first with
an olive oil spray.
Bake at 420° for 45-55 minutes, flipping every 15
minutes. Some days the fries cook faster
than other days.
Feel free to modify the salt and herbs to your
taste. I am on a high salt diet, so feel
free to cut this back if needed.
I
love using herbs from my garden. The
recipe below is with dried herbs, but if you have fresh cut herbs it makes the
French fries even better.
I love dipping them in Mayo seasoned with Salt, Garlic
Salt, Italian Seasonings, Basil and Oregano.
Eat often!
