A fabulous low calorie, low fat way of enjoying “fried” chips! Very easy to make, very clear instructions, very quick and together with ellie_’s Spinach With Sesame Seed Spinach With Sesame Seed, they made a totally delicious lunch. The weather had turned suddenly much cooler today, and I felt like some sort of comfort food, so I made just a quarter portion, which in step 9 I sprinkled with dried oregano and sage. Thanks Dancer^ for sharing this recipe.

    These look just like french fries and are very easy to make. A lot of options with the seasoning too. 2 Tbsp of margarine doesn't sound like enough but it is plenty. 2 yo DS loved these french fries and gobbled them up. Thanks for the recipe.
