Oven Fried Potaotes

Oven Fried Potatoes   From Taste of Home

12-14 Servings        Prep: 10 minutes     Bake: 40 minutes

12 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon pepper

1/3 cup vegetable oil      (I use olive oil)

Place potatoes in two large resealable plastic bags.  Combine the Parmesan cheese and seasonings; add to potatoes.  Seal bag and shake to coat.

Pour oil into two 15in x 10in x1 in baking pans.  Pour potatoes into pans.  Bake uncovered at 375 for 40-50 minutes or until tender. 

Tonight we settled on hamburgers and brauts.  We had these potatoes as a side along with some sliced apples from the apple orchard.  This might be the last beautiful day for awhile, so we took advantage of the wonderful day by grilling.  My husband does all of the clean up after dinner every night and when we grill there is less to clean up!  We took advantage of the nice weather and headed out for a walk to the park! 

Little Helpers:  My five year old helped me cut the potatoes!  Last winter when I was making a lot of soups, I taught her how to cut veggies with my Cutco knives....  She loves it and so far no accidents!  I let both of them add the seasonings and shake the bags...
