Fight Food Cravings


You're Craving: Fast-Food French Fries

Eat this instead:

Oven-Baked Fries

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Toss one unpeeled baking potato (about 5 ounces), cut into wedges, with 1 teaspoon oil. Arrange in single layer in shallow pan. Bake 25 minutes, turning once, until potatoes are golden.
Fast-Food French Fries: 450 calories, 22 grams fat per 5 ounces (large order of fries) Oven-Baked Fries: 145 calories, 5 grams fat 
 Savings: 305 calories, 17 grams fat

    Not just That!.. try sweet potato oven baked "fries".. they're amazing!!! and full of healthy carbs (more than that of regular potatoes, even though calorie-wise they're similar) .. i hate sweet potatoes but once i tasted those I became a huge fan!.. Plus they're a great source of Vitamin A!
    Cut them like u would cut a potato for fries, season with salt and pepper (and chili powder, or garlic powder for some extra shazaam if u like) and bake them in the oven!
