Zippy Sweet Potato Oven Fries

Sweet Potato Fries fresh from the oven - the small portion on the
left is oil-free and seasoning free for comparison.
These fries are the perfect evening snack or light lunch. They're super-healthy, but also ultra-tasty and fun to snack on. Of course, they're also a great side-dish with your favorite veggie burger.

Even some people who aren't Sweet Potato fans can enjoy them this way.

Zippy Sweet Potato Oven Fries
Preheat oven to 450 degrees
Line pan with Non-Stick foil (or, use a good quality nonstick pan -the natural sugars in these potatoes carmelize a bit during roasting which makes them prone to sticking)

Cut a sweet potato in medium size fry shapes - I peel mine - your choice.
Toss with about 2 tsp oil *
sprinkle with
Mrs. Dash Lemon Pepper Seasoning, or your favorite Lemon Pepper Seasoning Salt (optional)
spread on pan
bake 20 minutes
turn with spatula
bake 10 minutes more
Enjoy!

*I have made these without oil, they turn out acceptably well, but they do crisp better on the outside with a wee bit of oil.
Cut, Seasoned Sweet Potatoes before Baking.
