Baked Potatoes With Baked Beans
Ingredients
- 4 x Hot baked potatoes, cut in half lengthwise
- 1/2 c. Nonfat cottage cheese or possibly ricotta cheese
- 1 c. Vegetarian beans, liquid removed if soupy
- 1/2 c. Grated nonfat mozzarella or possibly cheddar cheese, (or possibly a mix)
- 1/2 c. Minced scallions, (optional)
Directions
- Here's a dish which makes potatoes the main attraction. It's adapted from 500 Fat-Free Recipes by S. Schlesinger. It is also quite filling depending on the size of the potatoes.
- 1. Preheat oven to 375F
- 2. Spread 1 Tbs. cottage cheese over each potato half
- 3. Add in 1/4 c. baked beans to each potato half
- 4. Top the baked beans on each potato half with 1 Tbs. grated cheese and 1 Tbs. scallions.
- 5. Bake till cheese melts, about 5 - 10 min.
- I usually serve this with what I call my Kitchen Sink Salad - everything in it but the kitchen sink - lots of veggies (greens, corn and peas from the freezer, radishes, jicama, etc.) or possibly else I serve it with stir-fry veggies.
- Hope this puts potatoes back on the menu. Patty.
