Day 48

Twice-baked potatoes are one of my favorite sides to cook when we grill steaks.  Since my "recipe" consists of a stick of butter, mayo, sour cream, and LOTS of cheese.......I figured it probably needed some modifications.  I found the following Weight Watchers Twice Baked Potato recipe.......at only 2 points per serving, I must say.........it was a delicious substitute to the high-fat original version.

Weight Watchers Twice Baked Potatoes

Points Plus Value:  2 

 Ingredients:

3 large baking potatoes
1/2 cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 cup 2% Milk Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese, divided
1/3 cup thin green onion slices
1/4 cup Light Sour Cream
1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
1/4 teaspoon paprika

(You can also add bacon crumbles, Points value would increase to 3)

Directions:

Heat oven to 400 degrees F.

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.
