Ingredients
6 large baking potatos4 scallions, chopped½ cup reduced fat sour cream or plain, nonfat yogurt2 tbsp. butter1/3 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese (can substitute any kind of cheese—Parmesan is also flavorful)SaltPepperPaprika for garnish
Directions
Scrub and poke the potatoes and bake in a hot oven until done. No need to wrap in foil, and potatoes can be started in microwave for 4 minutes before baking in the conventional oven.

When done, cut bakers in half lengthwise and scoop out flesh, leaving skin and a ¼-inch rind of potato, for strength. Arrange on cookie sheet.

Make a mash of the rest of the ingredients, reserving a little cheese and/or scallion rings.

Let mash cool a few minutes, then pour into pastry bag or plastic bag, seal, and clip off corner, in order to refill potato shells.

Once refilled, garnish potatoes with a sprinkle of cheese,and/or paprika and scallions, and bak for 30 minutes in 350°F oven. Serves 6 – 12.
