The Wedge of Light


I know it is a weird combination... potato wedges with pasta! Driving home from work this afternoon, I had a very bad craving for fries... instead of driving thru Wendy's... I decided to make my own.

4 large potatoes, unpeeled and scrubbed
1 tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 tsp cajun spice seasoning

Preheat oven to 400c

Cut each potato lengthwise into 4 slices. Then cut each slice into 2 wedgess.

Place potatoes in a large bowl. Add olive oil and cajun spice. Toss well to coat potatoes evenly with oil and seasoning.

Transfer potatoes to a large baking sheet that has been sprayed with non-stick spray. Spread evenly in a single layer. Bake for 20 mins. Turn wedges over and bake another 25 mins, until golden brown on the inside and tender on the inside.

Makes 4 servings..

Good thing with home made potato wedges is that there is no deep frying and it is only 280 calories per serving!
