BROCCOLI-STUFFED POTATOES 
6 med. or 3 lg. unpeeled potatoes, scrubbed
1 tsp. butter, melted
1 lb. fresh broccoli
1 c. grated cheddar cheese
1/3 c. milk or cream
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush the skins of potatoes with butter and score them down the middle lengthwise. Bake for 55 minutes or until tender. Steam broccoli 6 to 8 minutes. Chop finely. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the insides into a bowl. (Keep the skins.) Add broccoli, 1/2 cup cheese, milk, salt and pepper. Mash until mixture is pale green with dark flecks. Spoon mixture into the potato skins and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake for 10 minutes; then broil for 1 minute until tops are golden brown.
