Here is a great way to save money on making your own french fries. I like to stock up on bags of potatoes at the store when they are on sale. Then I like to take an afternoon and make these french fries and store them in the freezer for when I need them. My boys like them better than the store bought frozen bag ones and I like that it is alot cheaper to make them than to buy them.
You will be amazed at how easy it is to make these and if you are like me you will never buy them again
