There hasn’t been a whole lot of inventive cooking going on lately.\u00a0 If it’s quick, it’s what’s for dinner these days.<\/p>\n

I was selected through the Foodbuzz Tastemaker<\/strong> program to receive a sample of an Alexia Foods<\/strong> product. I chose their delicious Spicy Sweet Potato Fries<\/strong>. Plain sweet potato fries are o.k., but add the chipotle seasoning and I’m a happy camper.<\/p>\n

I set the oven at 400 degrees F. for 20-25 minutes and my side dish was ready…<\/p>\n

I love that my new french fry holders came with little paper inserts that explain a bit about the history of the french fry. Thanks Bon for my gift.<\/p>\n

I whipped up a little dipping sauce. Light sour cream, light mayo, chili powder and garlic powder and the combo did the trick. You really don’t need to dip them in anything, but I had to fill my new sauce holder with something \ud83d\ude09 – and a little cooling action from the heat was also nice.<\/p>\n

Now through March 30, 2012 – you have the chance to help select the next Alexia french fry flavor by voting in their “Reinvent a Classic” campaign on Facebook<\/strong>. Just visit: http:\/\/facebook.com\/AlexiaFoods<\/a> and click on the “Reinvent a Classic” tab to vote for one of four\u00a0gourmet\u00a0french fry flavors created by other food bloggers. \u00a0After inviting 22 food bloggers from across the country to submit recipes for the next great french fry flavor, Alexia narrowed down submissions to the top four and put the four finalists to a consumer vote.<\/p>\n

The flavors were introduced to us at the Foodbuzz Festival back in November.<\/p>\n
