Bistro Sliders with Baked Sweet Potato Fries
Sliders recipe from July/August 2010 issue of Everyday Food.
Sweet potato fries recipe from Paula Deen for Food Network. I used a suggestion from the comments and baked them at 450°F for 15 minutes, then reduced to 350°F for another 15. If you don’t want to make the full 1.5 cups of the House Seasoning, use the following proportions:
House Seasoning

1/2 tsp pepper

![Recently, I decided to start a tumblr called Homemade Lunch at my friend Aaron’s suggestion. I had been posting dishes I cooked—sometimes with recipe links and photographs—on my twitter and figured a blog would allow me to add notes on each dish and more easily archive them. Having a dedicated blog also allows other people to submit what they’ve cooked as well! From the submissions page:
You don’t have to show a photo. You don’t have to include a recipe. It doesn’t even have to be lunch (breakfast and dinner are okay too)! There is only one rule: it has to be [mostly] homemade.
You have the option to post text with the name of the dish as the title or a photograph with the name and recipe link as a caption—switch between the two by clicking on “Submit a Text Post.” Posts are tagged with the main ingredients and the type of cuisine, which makes it easy to filter if you’re looking to use up a bag of potatoes or craving some Mexican food; just look for the tag cloud at the bottom of the page.
I hope everyone will consider submitting their yummy creations!](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l6lg4cXNCE1qbxnbio1_500.jpg)
