HAM BOATS 
1 baking potato
2 tbsp. milk
2 tbsp. dairy sour cream
1/2 c. fully cooked ham strips, 2 x 1/4 inch
1 tbsp. chopped green onion
1/8 tsp. dry mustard
2 tbsp. shredded Cheddar cheese

Pierce potato with fork 2 or 3 times. Place in oven on paper towel. Microwave at High 3 to 5 minutes, or until soft to the touch, turning over after half the time. Wrap in foil or place under inverted bowl; let stand 5 minutes.

Slice potato in half lengthwise. Scoop out center. Set shells aside. Mash potato center with milk and sour cream. Mix in ham, green onion, and mustard. Spoon into potato shells. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon cheese on each. Reduce power to 50% (medium). Microwave 3 to 4 minutes, or until cheese melts and potato is heated. Serves 1.

Ham Boats for Two: Double all ingredients. Prepare as directed except microwave potatoes at High 5 to 7 1/2 minutes. Reduce power to 50% (medium). Microwave filled potato shells 4 to 5 minutes.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
