Ingredients
- 6 small potatoes baking, scrubbed and dried
- 1/4 cup safflower oil margarine Hollywood, melted
- 1 cup cheddar cheese alternative shredded, TofuRella
- 1/4 cup bacon pieces real, Hormel
- 1/4 cup green onions diced
- pepper Freshly ground
Instructions
- Pierce the potatoes several times with a fork. Place in the microwave on high for 18 minutes. (If you don’t have a carousel, turn the potatoes at least once during cooking.) The potatoes are done when they’re tender to piercing. Remove from the microwave and cool.
- When cool enough to handle, cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out the potato, leaving a thin coating along the skin. (Reserve the cooked potato, you can use most of it for other potato dishes, such as hash browns.)
- Place the potato skins, cut side up, on a baking sheet. Brush the melted safflower margarine completely over the inside of the potato skins. Take a little of the reserved potato (about 1 tablespoon, mashed) and put in the bottom of each skin. Sprinkle with the cheddar cheese alternative, bacon pieces, or desired toppings. Finish by sprinkling green onions and pepper on top.
- Return to the microwave, cooking long enough to melt the cheese and to warm the potatoes.
