Tonight my son said, “I love that you are a blogger because you make better food than other moms!”.  It cracked me up!  He loved these loaded potato wedges and my kids are normally the deciding factor if I share something on here or not.  These are great for a party or even a quick dinner.  I made these several times during football season so my boys could have a heavy snack before they headed off to practice.

Even though these are perfect during the school year, you can make them other times too.  I plan on making them for New Year’s Eve.  They are the perfect finger food for people to grab and go.
