Sea Salted Baked Potato Wedges

I love Dash's pre-made sliders... they are so quick to make and super flavorful! Tonight I made 2 types of sliders: chicken, feta and spinach and beef with cheddar. Dave cooked them in the cast iron pan over the stove top and they were out of this world. Any time I make sliders or hamburgers I have to eat  french fries with them. It doesn't matter which kind of fries they are I just have to have them with my hamburgers. If I was given a blotter test and there was a shape of a hamburger I would immediately say- french fry! Maybe I associate hamburgers with french fries because of the gazillion McDonalds Happy Meals I ate as a kid. We rarely eat at McDonalds but I have to admit I LOVE their french fries! So when we do make a fast food run I always get a small order of fries. I don't care that they are made with 17 ingredients, one including TBHQ which is basically lighter fluid and that they are fried in 7 types of oil....they are darn goooood! Well the version I made tonight are much healthier than any french fry out there and tasted way better too. I made Sea Salted Baked Potato Wedges. Every time I make them I say to myself why don't I make these more often. They are so easy to make and so addicting. You can't just have one! The best thing about them is that they are 100% natural so you can eat them with no guilt or feeling like you have to run 3 miles afterwards. I am making French Onion Soup this week for dinner so I have a ton of onions and that sparked the idea of making a Greek Yogurt French Onion Dip to go along with the potato wedges. The dip is incredible and pairs so well with the potato wedges! Salute to Sea Salted Baked Potato Wedges - a healthy alternative to french fries!

Healthy, Delicious and Addicting!

Greek Yogurt French Onion Dip is the perfect match!
