We took this traditionally high-fat nibble and gave it a CarbLovers makeover. Using smaller potatoes keeps these bites portion-controlled. Ingredients:
6 small potatoes (1 1/2 pounds) |
2 tablespoons reduced-fat sour cream |
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
2 scallions, sliced (white and green parts separated) |
2 ounces sliced deli ham, chopped |
1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. 2. Bake potatoes on baking sheet 25-30 minutes or until tender; set aside to cool. Preheat broiler with rack in highest position. 3. Halve cooked potatoes lengthwise. Scoop out flesh, leaving a 1/4-inch border; transfer potato flesh (about 2 cups) to a bowl. Mash potato with sour cream and 2 tablespoons water; season with salt an pepper. Fold in scallions whites and ham; spoon filling into potato shells. 4. Arrange filled potato skins on a baking sheet; sprinkle evenly with cheese. Broil 5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Spinkle with scallion greens before serving, if desired. |
