Sweet Potato French Fries

Let's face it everyone loves french fries! If you tell me you don't then you are lying. The best kind I think we can all agree is the golden arches famous fries AKA McDonald's. Ray Crock the founder of McDonald's was famous for his fries back in the day and even today all fast food restaurant chains are compared to greasy, crispy, thin, melt in your mouth, mouth watering high calorie but delicious beyond delicious french fries. This recipe I have created is almost as good as McDonald's. I say almost because even I know that nothing will ever compare to their's LOL

Sweet Potato French Fries
6 large sweet potatoes (I normally say that 1 potato feeds 2 people).
olive oil
cinnamon
salt
pepper
paprika
cumin
onion powder

1. Slice of the potatoes into thin - 2 inch - strips
2. pour oil over it
3. mix all spices together then pour fries in a bag and spices in as well.
4. mix it well. allow it to marinate it the oil and spices for a few hours mixing and rubbing every 30 minutes
5. pour olive oil into a pot and heat it up. place one fry in at  a time. THIS IS ESSENTIAL or it will clamp together. Remove once the fries turn golden brown. Pat hard with a towel removing all excess grease and unwanted fat and calories.

Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Matza Tuna Ziti

I created this amazing recipe whewatn I was planning to make matza brie with an whole box of matza but ended up only needing 1/2 the box. I didn't know what to do with the other half of crushed matza. It was then that I came up with making tuna matza ziti. On Passover, Jewish people are not allowed to eat bread in any form. We can only eat matza. This recipe is very tasty. It kosher for Passover. But I promise you that even if you are not Jewish and aren't required to eat matza you will love this!!

1/2 box of crushed matza
2 eggs
2 cans of tuna
2 tbsp. of light mayo
1/2 onion
2 cups of shredded or sliced mozzarella cheese

1. mix the matza with egg
2. place half the egg/matza mixture into a baking dish
3. place 1 can of tuna down on top of the egg/matza mixture
4. sprinkle a layer of the mozzarella cheese
5. repeat
6. slice onions and place on top of final layer of cheese
7. bake in oven at 350 for 35 minutes


Serve and Enjoy! I am sorry but I don't have a photo of this one. :)
