Mommy's on a diet

I altered this recipe from one that I found online, which had much higher calories.  With just a couple tweaks of ingredients, it turned out both delicious and low calorie.  I hope you enjoy.

Ingredients: 

• 3 russet potatoes
• 2 TBSP olive oil
• 1 1/2 tsp salt
• 11/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1 1/2 tsp italian seasoning
• 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese (I used kraft)

Directions:

1. Slice each potato into 8 wedges.  (I sliced down the middle longways, and then 3 cuts through each half, leaving me with 24 “wedges”)
2. In a large bowl, cover the wedges with the olive oil, and stir it around so the oil coats all the potatoes evenly.
3. Add all the seasonings as well as the cheese and mix well until all potatoes are covered.
4. Spray a large baking sheet very liberally with nonstick spray.  Line the wedges up side by side with the potato skills facing down on the sheet.
5. If there is any cheese left in the bowl, you might as well scoop it on top of the less cheesy wedges (you already counted the calories so you might as well eat the cheese!)
6. Bake at 425 for 25-30 minutes.  If you put them skin side down, you don’t even have to flip them during baking.
