Clean Eating- Baked Parmesan Fries

Tonight, my family will be enjoying Baked Parmesan Fries! I have to say they smell delicious cooking! I am trying to have a least one clean dish on our table every night! I found this recipe on Clean Eating Magazine's site.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 lb Yukon gold or red potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips

• 2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 to 1/2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper, to taste
• Sea salt, to taste

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with foil. Place potatoes on baking sheet, drizzle evenly with oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder and pepper. Toss to coat, then arrange potatoes in a single layer. Bake in center of oven for 10 minutes, then flip and stir, and bake for 5 minutes more or until lightly golden.
2. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with salt and Parmesan. Serve immediately or at room temperature.
