Roasted Sweet Potato Wedges (fries) (Weight Watchers Best Eats. p. 154)


I included the original recipe, however, for myself, I cut these into French fry slices using all the same ingredients. I really like sweet potato fries and this is a great no fat substitute for french fries. This recipe serves 4 and has only 69 calories per serving with zero fat.

You can also use baking potatoes if you are not a sweet potato fan and substitute oregano if you prefer.

Ingredients:

2 medium sweet potatoes
1 tsp olive oil
1/4 tsp salt (although I do salt to taste after they are cooked)
1/4 tsp dried rosemary, crushed

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray

2. Halve the potatoes lengthwise and cut each piece lengthwise into thirds. Toss with oil, salt, and rosemary in a large bowl. Arrange in a single layer on the pan with a cut side down. Bake until browneed on bottom, about 15 minutes (about 10 if you cut into french fry sizes). Turn potatoes onto the opposite cut side and bake until browned, about 15 minutes (or 10) longer. Serve at once.
