Movie Night!

It was Sunday night and Bill and I were planning on watching a movie. Unfortunately, I hadn't made it to the grocery store yet. I was determined to not spend money but wanted to have a fun movie night meal for us to share. After pursuing some recipes and looking through my poorly stocked pantry, I decided on making these oven fries. We loved them! I made different sauces to go with them. I liked that the fries  were a little lighter and less greasy than regular fries but had a great texture and lots of flavor.

4 large Russet baking potatoes
cooking spray
1  egg whites
1 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning
Sauce ingredients

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Slice your potatoes into one inch slices or however thick or thin you like fries. The thinner you slice it, the less time it will take to cook.
Place with wax paper ( I was out and used foil) on a cookie sheet.Spray wax paper with cooking spray (or drizzle with olive oil). Combine egg whites and Cajuns seasoning in a bowl. Coat the potatoes with egg whites and Cajuns seasoning . Place the coated potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet and spread them out into a single layer. It is okay if they touch. Sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for 40 minutes or until fries are crispy. Turn them every them three times (every 10 minutes or so). Serve with special sauces.

Fiesta Ranch:

Cajun seasonings, ranch, an 1/8 teaspoon of hot sauce (when I use this dip I melt cheese on top of the fries and you can even add bacon).

Basil:

Mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, and basil

Other ideas: Dijon and mayonnaise, ketchup and mayonaise.
