Stuffed Baked Potato

Submitted by keen5

"I love these and don't make them often enough! Sometimes I can just have one of these for lunch. Cook/prep time does not include pre-baking the potato. I pre-cook mine in the oven (my preference), but you can also microwave it."

We really liked these, but I printed it based on low calories. The calorie count is totally off as a baked potato plain has more calories than is listed here. With 1 russet, 1 zuc, 1/2 T of butter for sautee, 1 oz cheese it was 310 calories. Still not bad and they did taste wonderful.
