Ham Steak

Probably the easiest thing I cook, a ham steak is a simple and inexpensive meat to prepare for dinner, and goes great with macaroni and cheese, so it's popular with kids.

1. Take ham steak out of package and place in a glass baking dish. 
2. Sprinkle brown sugar on both sides. 
3. Bake in a 400 degree oven for ~15 minutes.
4. Serve!

Parmesan Oven Fries

This is a super-easy method of making delicious oven fries, without all the fat in french fries, courtesy of my grandmother.

1. Cut up potatoes into small cubes/chunks. 
2. Pour ~2 TB of olive oil into a jelly roll (or similar) pan, and spread it around.
3. Mix ~1/2 cup of flour and ~1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese in a bowl. (Use more for larger batches.)
4. Put potato chunks in bowl, about a handful at a time, and mix them around in the flour/cheese, then put them in the pan, spread around in one layer.
5. Bake in a 375 degree oven for approximately 30 minutes, checking and "tossing" potatoes periodically, to make sure they are cooked evenly.
6. Sprinkle remaining cheese/flour mixture on the top, and bake for 10 more minutes.

My daughter goes nuts over these, and my very picky husband likes them a lot too!
