Parmesan-Coated Potato Wedges

These Cooking Light potato wedges combine both baking potatoes and sweet potatoes - a real treat! They definitely take some assembly time, so don't add these to your menu if you've only got 30 minutes to get dinner on the table. I served them with Sloppy Joes, green beans, and a salad, and they were great.

PARMESAN-CRUSTED POTATO WEDGES


Recipe Notes


I recommend choosing smaller potatoes. The larger ones make for VERY large wedges.
