Mediterranean Topped Baked Potatoes

"Who doesn't like a baked potato? They are full of nutrients and low in fat, until you load on the butter and sour cream. Think about this topping, you just might like it and be healthier for it --wink--."

  1. This is a 5 star recipe, but I think it goes better with fish or chicken than with beef. I think it would be really fabulous with grilled fish. Had it tonight with grilled steak, and I don't think that was the best match. But I loved the flavors, and can just imagine the wonderful combinations! Thanks for posting!
     
  2. Boy, this was enough to blow your socks off! We had this as a football-fare and it turned out beautifully! I love the sun-dried tomato/low fat yogurt, and olives! Wow! I had fresh chives to plucked them right up and they gently atop that great potato and life was so good! Made for the Diabetic Fall Comfort Foods, Oct 2012
     
  3. What a nice side dish this was to dinner tonight. I used non-fat yogurt, shredded parmesan cheese, and ripe olives. Excellent flavors this had, and even my picky 11 year old enjoyed hers with the olives, which I had thought she would pick them out. Nice twist to a regular baked potato. Made and reviewed for PRMR tag.
     
  4. For me it was 4 stars but DH really liked this. He said 5 stars :) I used fat free sour cream, parmesan cheese. I baked the potatoes in the microwave. Thanks Annacia :) Made for Holiday tag
     
  5. Totally delicious: if you love Mediterranean flavours, you'll love this recipe. First I made a batch of bcmnicol's Crock Pot Baked Potatoes 259599 (which made assembling the potatoes in this recipe SO quick and easy!), then for my filling I used used Greek yoghurt - so decadently creamily delicious - kalamata olives and feta. I used chopped roasted red pepper from my Greek delicatessen (because I prefer it) instead of the sundried tomatoes, and for the seasoning I used a few grindings of a rosemary and sage blend that I've enthusiastically been using in lots of recipes recently. Thank you for sharing this easy to make and delicious recipe, Annacia!
