I know, I know. Fries could never be healthy, but these aren’t actually too bad for you.  The hubby and I are part of a co-op type program with a local farmer, where we receive produce on a weekly basis.  A week or so ago, we received sweet potatoes.  One of my most FAVORITE things in the world are sweet potato fries, so of course, I had to make them myself.

I first preheated the oven to 475 degrees. Then, I cleaned and cut two medium sized sweet potatoes into strips.  Afterward, I placed them into a bowl, mixed with a tablespoon of olive oil, which is way too much, sprinkled garlic powder, rosemary and crushed red pepper into the bowl.  Next, I mixed all of the ingredients together.  Lastly, I placed the fries on top of a baking sheet covered with parchment paper and placed the pan in the oven.  I baked the fries for 13 minutes, flipped them over and baked for another 13 minutes.

Voila!  They are done.  To add some substance, I paired the fries with a small salad.  It was delicious!
