These are the best baked French fries! I have been playing around with different ways to bake fries for some time now, and I feel this is the best recipe thus far. Baking the fries saves money and you can't beat the taste. Baking time may vary depending on how thick you cut the fries.

'Unstuffed' Cabbage with a Kick
This is an alteration on a typical stuffed cabbage recipe. It's healthy, low-fat, low-carb, and a bit spicy. You can't go wrong with this recipe! You may omit the red pepper and cayenne if you do not like spicy foods, or increase like we do! We serve this over brown rice to make it more of a whole meal. We love it! I used roasted garlic-flavored tomato sauce for extra 'kick.'
Very Veggie and Beef Chili
This chunky beef chili with vegetables is a hearty meal that can be made with either ground beef or ground turkey breast.
Scacce Ragusane (Sicilian Stuffed Flatbread)
This is my first attempt ever at this incredibly unique and delicious Sicilian stuffed flatbread (scacce Ragusane) recipe. What we have here is a very familiar pizza-like flavor profile, but the delivery system is unlike anything you've ever experienced. The outside edges are crispy and crunchy while that saucy and cheesy center is much like pasta in texture. So, while this is vaguely similar to a lot of things, it's really unlike anything else.
