What I did:  Followed this recipe to the letter!  Wonderful! No ketchup for these potato wedges!

What will I do differently next time:   My daughters didn't care for the spices, so next time I will make some spiced ones for Mommy & Daddy and plain ones for the girls.  My DH did ask me to not put as much sea salt on next time.

**Warning:  Very greasy made this way!  Working on trying to lessen the grease.  Some suggestions are to use lowfat cheese and sweet potatoes instead of the regular cheese and white potatoes called for.**

What I did:  I added more potatoes to it and it was WONDERFUL!
