SLICED BAKED POTATOES
(MICROWAVE)
 
For 4 servings you will need:

4 med. even potatoes
1 tsp. salt
2 to 3 tbsp. melted butter
2 to 3 tbsp. chopped fresh herbs
4 tbsp. grated Cheddar cheese
1 1/2 tbsp. Parmesan cheese

(Such as parsley, chives, thyme or sage or 2 to 3 teaspoons dried herbs of your choice).

1. Peel potatoes if the skin is tough, otherwise just scrub and pat dry.

2. 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.

3. Place potatoes in a microsafe dish or pan. Sprinkle with melted butter and chopped parsley, chives or sage.

4. Microwave at High power for 10 minutes, rearranging the potatoes after 5 minutes.

5. Let rest for 5 minutes.

6. Sprinkle with grated cheese and Parmesan cheese.

7. Microwave for another 4 to 6 minutes at High power until cheeses are melted and potatoes are soft. Sprinkle with salt.

8. Serve potatoes as a side dish or as a main dish with just a salad.

(May be baked in the oven at 425 degrees for approximately 1 hour. Sprinkle with cheese and bake for 15 minutes longer to melt cheese.)

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