Dinner Last Night: Twice-Baked Potatoes with Greek Yogurt

I love anything dish that includes potatoes. Seriously. They might just be my favorite food. Can you tell I'm Irish? One of my fave ways to cook potatoes is the ever-flavorful and ever-fattening, Twice Baked Potatoes.

I recently found a Martha Stewart recipe that solves this problem, Twice-Baked Potatoes with Greek Yogurt. While it's not quite fat-free, it's definitely more low-fat, substituting Greek yogurt in for sour cream. Cooking note: this recipe recommends baking the potato mixture in ramekins, however I happen to have a total of zero ramekins in my pantry, so I just refilled the potato skins with the filling and they turned out just fine. Bottoms up!

  2. I love twice baked potatoes! I'm like you, I'm a sucker for any potato product. Yummy!

    Potatoes are really good for you - they have tons of fiber, tons of vitamin C and also help boost serotonin! So eat all you want ;-)

    Great tip subbing the yogurt for the sour cream. I use plain yogurt as a substitute for a lot of things and it works great.
