Herb & Parmesan Roasted Fries
If you are like me, you love french fries. I could eat them every day. I love them in many ways. I like plain, salty ones. I like cheesy fries, or seasoned fries. I like skinny fries and steak fries.

When I returned home from my visit, I just couldn’t stop…

What I love about bread is the ability to do anything with it. Are you going to have a sandwich? Dip it in soup? Have it plain with some butter? Dress it up with cheese and garlic? Whatever you want, bread will provide, and with many textures and flavors to offer too. In my opinion, bread should be it’s own part of the food pyramid because it just goes so good with anything…
