Title: Oven Baked Fries
Categories: Lowfat Vegetable Canadian
Yield: 4 Servings

3	md	Baking potatoes, peeled, cut
1	tb	Vegetable cooking oil

Cut potatoes in strips after peeling. (My note: new potatoes will not bake as well but you could pat them dry with paper towel and try them.)

Coat baking sheet with no-stick cooking spray. Put potato strips into large bowl. Drizzle with cooking oil. Toss together well to coat.

Arrange on baking sheet. Bake in a single layer in 450 F oven for 15 min. Turn and bake about 10-15 minutes longer. (Note: time depends on thickness, check sooner if you cut them thin.) Test a strip for crispness.

Makes 4 servings 1 serving = 35 Cal, trace of fat (3 oz potato about 1 starch/bread exchange. 1 cup cooked diced potato 118 cal, 26.5 gm carb, 3.3 gm protein, .2 gm fat)
