Healthy Recipe Makeover: Twice Baked Potatoes


The ladies of DTBMMLF thought our readers might enjoy some healthy recipe ideas, so we're participating in Tuesdays at the Table along with Cole and others. If you like potatoes like I like potatoes, this is a delicious alternative to the fat, cholesterol, and calorie laden original:

Twice Baked Potatoes


3 large baking potatoes
1/2 cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 cup KRAFT 2% Milk Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese, divided
1/3 cup thin green onion slices
1/4 cup BREAKSTONE'S Reduced Fat or KNUDSEN Light Sour Cream 1 tsp.
GREY POUPON Dijon Mustard
1/4 tsp. paprika

HEAT oven to 400ºF.

PIERCE potatoes in several places with tip of sharp knife. Bake 1 to 1-1/4 hours or until tender. Immediately cut potatoes lengthwise in half; scoop out centers, leaving 1/4-inch-thick shells.

BEAT potato pulp, broth, 1/2 cup cheese, onions, sour cream and mustard with mixer until well blended. Spoon into shells; top with remaining cheese and paprika.

BAKE 20 min. or until heated through.

I got this recipe through an e-mail from Kraft Kitchens. The recipes they send aren't all healthy, but most of them sure look yummy!
