Baked Potato Sticks
"Here's a great way to fix potatoes! Kids go crazy for them! I sometimes fix my hubby and I one large potato to share. Great thing is, I only eat 1 or 2 and leave the rest for him; that way I don't have as many fat calories. This recipe is from Chef Tom. I sometimes use bacon grease rather than the butter. Sooo good!"

These are really good! I used 3 large baking potatoes, 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter and sea salt. Didnt use the full amount of salt but next time I will as they needed a bit more. Placed them on a cookie sheet and poured the butter over them. Turned to coat well then added the salt and pepper. While they were baking I did flip them a couple times to get a nice golden brown on each side. Served with Misa's Recipe #388873 tonight for supper and enjoyed great comfort food. Made and reviewed for Kitten's Mini Cookathon.

I would like to welcome you to my recipes. I have been with Food.com since 10/05.
My beloved husband, Tom, passed away 3 years ago. My world stopped. It's taken me all this time to find my way back to life without him.
I have been so blessed to have found my second, once in a lifetime. I've met an amazing man who is so good to me.
We moved from Las Vegas, Nevada to Bullhead City, Az. in February, and we love it here.
I have worked at Bally's and Paris hotel.casinos, in Las Vegas. I have seen some very famous entertainers, including Liza Minnelli, Penn and Teller, Ray Liotta, Dr. J (Julius Erving), Frank Sinatra and his wife Barbara Marx. and many, many more.
Cooking is my passion, and I am slowly, but surely beginning to venture into the world of baking. To me, cooking is so much easier because baking is so much more exact.
I love to make Italian and Mexican food the best, followed by Chinese and last, but by far the least, good old American food! How can you beat chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and gravy?? I love to find several recipes and put my own spin on them and create a new recipe.
