Ranch Seasoned Oven Fries

These oven fries have quickly become a family favorite. They are so easy and yummy! And even better they are frugal and healthy to boot.

• six potatoes
• olive oil
• homemade ranch seasoning mix

Wash potatoes and cut into wedges. Toss with olive oil and about 2Tbsp of ranch seasoning mix. Arrange in a single layer on a pan that has been coated with cooking spray or brushed with olive oil. Bake in a 450 degree oven for about 45 minutes flipping potatoes about half way through.

Dry Ranch Seasoning Mix

• 1 Tbsp dried parsley
• 2 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 Tbsp seasoning salt
• 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 3/4 tsp onion powder
• 1/4 tsp dried thyme

Mix all ingredients together and use as a substitute for ranch seasoning packets. The above recipe makes about the equivalent of three envelopes. It is SO much cheaper and better for you. We made a double batch and store in a glass jar. That way it is always ready to make fries or dip.
