"Jellybeans"

"Jellybeans" is what my family calls potato chunks baked in the oven.  They are kind of a simplified version of homemade fries in that the potatoes are cut into chunks instead of strips.  To make these, put a little bit of olive oil into a large bowl and add whatever combination of spices you want!  I usually try to use a combo that is included in the main dish I am making.  You don't want too much olive oil - just enough to coat the potato chunks.  With the seasonings, you probably want a bit more than you think you need or else you may not be able to taste all of the great flavors!

Our favorite "jellybeans" to make are really simple: paprika and garlic salt.  These are especially delicious with hamburgers on the grill!
