This is a recipe from Jyl Steinback's Supermarket Gourmet Cookbook that I received from Studentchef in the Spring 2009 Cookbook Swap. It is a quick and easy appetizer and kid-friendly snack. you can substitute ground turkey for the ground beef for lower fat or texturized vegetable protein for a vegetarian alternative.
Ingredients:
4 medium baking potatoes, each cut into 8 wedges
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
4 teaspoons spicy seasoning mix, of your choice preferably salt-free
1 cup shredded nonfat cheddar cheese
1 lb extra lean ground beef
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400ºF. Line baking sheet(s) with foil and spray with cooking spray.
2. Arrange potato wedges on baking sheet(s). Sprinkle potatoes with spicy seasoning. bake 20 to 25 minutes, until cooked through.
3. Spray nonstick skillet with cooking spray, add ground beef and cook, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through.
4. Add barbecue sauce to the cooked ground beef and cook until hot and bubbly.
5. Pour meat sauce over potato wedges; top with cheese and bake 5 to 6 minutes, until cheese is melted.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy!
