Oven Fried Parmesan Potatoes

The additional of seasonings and cheese adds flavor and a golden color to these low-fat French fries.

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Salt to taste (optional)

Preheat oven to 450º. Scrub potatoes, but don’t peel. Cut in wedges or strips. Place potato slices in a plastic bag with the oil and shake well to coat potatoes evenly. In a plastic bag, mix seasonings. Add potatoes and shake to coat. Arrange potatoes, in a single layer, on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
