Potato is perhaps the most versatile vegetable available. Enjoyed in every form they come in, be it fried, boiled, or baked, this vegetable is truly a game-changer. What’s even more interesting about this vegetable is how you decide how healthy it is when eating. For example, you may fry them to make yourself some fries. Convenient, but highly unhealthy. If you boil and bake them, with some seasoning, then they make for a hearty and healthy snack.
One of the most common forms taken by potatoes aside from french fries and potato crisps is potato wedges. They’re slightly thicker than french fries and come with the skin of the vegetable. For your enjoyment, here are some delicious and healthy potato wedge recipes:
