This is the recipe I've been using. I cut the fries thin like McDonald's, and they turn out yummy. Even my picky dh likes them.
Oven Fries
1 ¼ lbs (about 2 large) baking potatoes, peeled and cut into ½” strips
¾ tsp salt
½ tsp Splenda
4 tsp oil
1 tsp paprika
Preheat the oven to 450. Spray a nonstick baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, ¼ tsp of the salt and the Splenda with cold water to cover. Soak 15 minutes, drain and blot dry.
In another large bowl, toss the potatoes with the oil and paprika. Place in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake, turning the potatoes over as they brown, until cooked through and crisp, about 45 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining salt. (I sprinkled mine with garlic salt instead of regular.)

Thanks, Angela! This is EXACTLY the recipe that I pulled out to try. I had seen some with egg whites and wasn't sure this recipe would get crispy or brown enough. I'll be trying it next week.
Vickie, Scrumptious is such a pleasant word. And you are certainly Clever!
