Becoming Betty Crocker: Steak & Garlic Frites

So, last night I pulled out 3 steaks that were frozen together.  I debated whether or not to make steaks again & what would I have with it since we had mashed potatoes last night?

Then it hit me - Steak Frites!  We used to have steak frites on our rotation when hubby was on days a long time ago.  But, I wanted to do something a little different - Garlic Frites.  I looked at this recipe and changed it up a bit.

I cut the potatoes up and then put 4 teaspoons of vegetable oil on them, added pepper & garlic powder unil lightly covered.

 

I put the oven at 400 degrees, turned at 20 minutes, cooked for another 20 minutes and below is the final product!

YUMMY!  We had steak with Montreal seasoning (our favorite) and blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping the frites in.

I think I'm getting the hang of this Betty Crocker stuff!
