Spooky Jacket Potatoes (Yield: 8 servings)

Ingredients:

  • 4 medium sized potatoes
  • 1 Tbsp. skim milk
  • 3 Tbsp. reduced fat sour cream
  • 2 Tbsp. grated mozzarella cheese
  • 1 Tbsp. margarine
  • Black Olive (slices)

Preparation Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Skore potatoes with your fork. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through. Remove potatoes from oven, and allow them to cool. When potatoes are cool enough to handle scoop out the centers, be sure to leave 1/2 inch or so around the sides so the potatoes stay whole. In a bowl place all remaining ingredients, and the scooped out potatoes. Mix potatoes through. Place the mashed potatoes in the potato jackets. Dry black olive slice with a paper towel. Cut slice into tiny pices. Place slices on potatoes two pieces for the eyes, and one for the nose. Place potatoes back in the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
