--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/2      teaspoon  ground cinnamon
     1/2      teaspoon  ground ginger
     1/4      teaspoon  chili powder -- or more to taste
  1               dash  nutmeg -- or two, to taste
  1              pinch  Italian seasoning -- generous

Preheat oven to 400F.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Whisk spices and Italian seasoning together in a small bowl and set aside.
Rinse potatoes and apples under cold water, then transfer to a large bowl
and mix with spices.
If the pieces are not well coated, make a second batch of spices and mix.
Transfer to cookie sheet, avoiding any overlap.
Bake for 10 to 20 minutes, or until fork-tender and crisp.
Squeeze lime juice over the top, if desired.
Season lightly with salt and pepper, if desired, and serve.

Chef's Note: For a spicy kick, increase the chili powder to taste and add
a little cayenne powder or hot sauce instead of lime juice at the end.
 
AuthorNote: I found a great recipe for sweet potato wedges in our local
St. Maarten newspaper (sxmfaxinfo.com). The recipe originally called for
honey, which I replaced with an apple, and for various fresh herbs that I
simplified with Italian seasoning.
