Oven Baked Cheese Fries

Sorry the picture isn't great but we may or may not have eaten almost all of them before I remembered I wanted to take a picture.  They are that good!

Oven Baked Cheese Fries

2 tsp. vegetable oil

2 large baking potatoes

1 large egg white

2 tsp. Emeril's original Essence

8 oz. white cheddar cheese, grated

2 T. thinly sliced green onions

1. Preheat oven to 425
2. Grease a baking sheet with the vegetable oil
3. Cut potatoes into 1/2" segments
4. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the egg white until very light and foamy.
5. Add the potatoes to the egg white and coat evenly.
6. Spread the potatoes on the baking sheet, so the fries aren't touching each other. Bake for 10 minutes.
7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, sprinkle fries with half of Emeril's original Essence on one side.  Flip fries and sprinkle with remaining seasoning.
8. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 20 minutes until crispy and brown. 
9. Remove potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with cheese and green onions.
10. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake until cheese is melted, about 3 minutes.

Football Cheese Dip

So good yet so bad for me ...

Sausage Cheese Dip (Recipe from Terry Cipriani)
(16 oz.) Mexican Velveeta cheese (or normal if you can't find mexican version)
1 lb. sausage (I use original but you could use spicy)
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 jar salsa (spiciness level that you prefer)
1 can cream of mushroom soup (weird I know but delicioso!)

1. Brown sausage and onion in skillet on stove.
2. Meanwhile, in a large pot over low to medium low heat begin to melt cheese, salsa, and cream of mushroom soup. Mix ingredients while melting. Be sure to watch it because the cheese will burn easily.
3. Once melted, combine sausage with cheese mixture.
4. Transfer to crock pot and keep warm over low heat.
5. Serve with chips.

*If you are patient enough you can melt the cheese, salsa and cream of mushroom soup together in a crock pot over low heat.
