Boil 'em, mash 'em, put 'em in a stew.

POTATOES.

They are delicious and mildly nutritious. Actually, they aren't that nutritious at all! The potato famine, as I once thought, was not about a lack of potatoes. The potato famine happened because ALL the peoples had to eat WAS potatoes. And not surprisingly, that = death.

BUT, today we're just eating some potatoes, not for months on end.

Roasted potato fries!

It's actually pretty simple.

1. Turn your oven on to about 400-425 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Cut your potatoes in wedges.

3. Create your seasoning! I like to do different spice combinations. Most of the time though, it's salt, pepper, garlic powder, and perhaps a curry paste. All of that mixed in some veggie oil and then slathered all over the wedges. My mom would use a packet of onion soup mix (Which is what I have done today...sort of).

4. Into the oven for....30-45-50 minutes dependin on how crispy you want them to be (also be sure to turn them over if you prefer two-sided crispiness).

5. Consume the crap out of them.
