French Fries are my weakness. I really struggle when we go out to eat, because there they are on the menu. High in fat and calories. Not to mention the threat of cross contamination. Sometimes I just have to have them, and that is where this recipe comes in. Half the fat because they are baked and not fried. A little garlic and spice and I am all set. These are super easy to make. I make a lot and store them in the fridge because they reheat really well and also make a good hash for under eggs in the morning. Naturally gluten-free.
