GARDEN STUFFED BAKED POTATOES 
4 potatoes
2 tbsp. butter
1 small onion, chopped
1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained
1/2 c. Ranch salad dressing
1 tbsp. vegetable oil
2 tbsp. dried parsley
salt and pepper
1 c. grated cheese

Precook potatoes. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate. Preheat oven to 425°F. Microwave pierced potatoes for 12 minutes. Slice off potato tops. Scoop out pulp, keeping skins intact. Mash pulp in a medium bowl. Brush outside of potato skin with oil. Heat a small skillet over medium heat; add butter and onion. Cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add onion, broccoli and salad dressing to potato pulp; mix well. Spoon potato mixture into shells, dividing evenly. Place on a baking sheet.

Bake potatoes until heated through, 15 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley, salt and pepper to taste.

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