Sweet Potato Fries

Here is another one of my husbands recipes:  Sweet potato fries.  He LOVES sweet potatoes (I don't, but these aren't too bad coming from a non-sweet potato lover).

Ingredients:
2 Sweet potatoes
1/8 cup oil (just an estimate)
salt to taste
pepper to taste

Directions:
*Cut the potatoes into fries.  We make ours fairly thick in size.

*Put the fries into a big bowl and pour enough oil on top.  Mix them up so that they are all coated thinly in oil.

*Pour the fries onto a baking sheet that has been lined with tin foil.

*Salt and pepper your fries.

*Pre-heat your oven to 425*.  Now bake your fries for about 20 minutes (check them after 15 to make sure the tops aren't burning).  Flip the fries, and continue cooking another 10 minutes or so to crisp the other side.  These aren't super crispy fries since they are baked, but they are healthy, easy, and tasty.  We have made them this way a few times now and there is never any leftover.  My friend sprinkles Parmesan cheese on top of hers once they are cooked so that is an option too if you want to try those!
