MICROWAVE SLICED BAKED POTATOES 
4 med. even potatoes
1 tsp. salt
2 to 3 tbsp. melted butter
2 or 3 tbsp. chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, chives, thyme or sage) or
2 to 3 tsp. dried herbs of your choice
4 tbsp. grated cheddar cheese
1 1/2 tbsp. Parmesan cheese

Peel potatoes if the skin is tough, otherwise just rinse and pat dry. Cut potatoes into thin slices but not all the way through. Use a handle of a spoon to prevent knife from cutting all the way. Place potatoes in a microsafe dish or pan. Sprinkle with melted butter and chopped parsley, chives or sage. Microwave at HIGH power for 10 minutes, rearranging the potatoes after 5 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with grated cheese and Parmesan cheese. Microwave for another 4 to 6 minutes at HIGH power until cheeses are melted and potatoes are soft. Sprinkle with salt. Serve potatoes as a side dish or as a main dish with just a salad. Yield: 4 servings.

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