Are you looking for healthier French fries? Stop right here! This Dijon baked fries recipe is AMAZING! They are crisp on the outside, but soft on the inside. A coating of Dijon mustard adds a sweet and spicy zip. You’ll be addicted in no time. The leftovers kept disappearing off the baking sheet at my house, long after the were cold..
It may seem strange that I’m using salt-free Mrs. Dash, but then sprinkling the fries with salt. I like the flavor combinations Mrs. Dash offers. I usually go with the traditional blend. You can substitute other varieties or any other spices you like.
French fries need salt in my opinion, though! If you are trying to cut back on sodium, leave it out. These potato babies have plenty of flavor from their Dijon bath.
Put these in the oven and your house will be smelling good in no time from the mustard glaze. By using the aluminum foil, clean up is a breeze.
My Ketchup loving daughter didn’t even think to ask for the red stuff to dip these in! She gobbled ’em up by themselves.
If you’re looking for healthier French fries, give these Dijon baked fries a try.

These sound good. I have to avoid potatoes, though, since they make my blood sugar spike. Maybe I’ll try these with zucchini or something I can eat. Thanks.
