These addictive seasoned "fries" from Mark Bittman are actually baked, but we promise you won't miss the grease. The spice mix - garlic powder, paprika, salt and black pepper - can be used on regular potatoes as well (you'll just need to increase the baking time a bit).

I love this recipe. I made it up from a version I had at a restaraunt. Great for kids too! I choose to dip into ranch dressing. I know it may sound strange, but try it, YUM!
