Seasoned Potato Skin Wedges

 These are seriously so yummy and so easy!

Seasoned Potato Skin Wedges
Family Fun had these in their Halloween edition several years back, but they were way too good to eat just at Halloween time!

Ingredients:
Washed, unpeeled potatoes
Olive oil
Seasoned salt
Onion powder
Garlic Salt
Sour Cream
Scallions (opt.) *I sprinkled mine with chives instead.*

Directions:
1.  Cut each potato lengthwise into 1/4-1/2" slabs.  (If you want to make a ghost shape, you can cut one end of each slab.)
2. Grease a baking sheet and lay the potato slabs on it (pieces with skin go skin side down).  Brush the top of each slab with olive oil and season with seasoned salt, onion powder, and garlic salt.  (suggestion: combine 1 tsp of each spice in a bowl, then sprinkle about 1/8 tsp of the mixture over each slab.)
3.  Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes.
4.  Remove the potatoes from the oven and cool for 10 minutes, then "frost" them with sour cream and sprinkle with chives.  (For ghost potatoes, arrange the scallions...or olives, or chives, or whatever you choose to make a spooky ghost face.)

Here is my very sad attempt to make my potato look ghosty with chives.  It would be way more awesome with olives or scallions!
