POTATO SPLIT 
1 lg. baked potato (about 10 oz.)
3 tbsp. low-fat milk
1/4 c. cottage cheese
2 tbsp. toasted sunflower seeds
2 tbsp. green bell pepper
2 tbsp. chopped carrot
2 tbsp. sliced green onion
1/4 c. shredded Cheddar cheese
1/8 tsp. pepper
Salt to taste
3 cherry tomatoes, halved

Halve and scoop out the baked potato, leaving 1/4 inch shells. Mash potato pulp in a bowl, add milk, cottage cheese, sunflower seeds, green pepper, carrot, onion, 1/8 cup of the Cheddar cheese, the pepper and the salt. Gently mix to blend together. Mound into potato shells, dividing equally.

Arrange 3 tomato halves on each, pushing in slightly. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake in a 450 degree F. oven about 10 minutes, until cheese is melted and potatoes are heated through. Makes 2 servings.
