Who wouldn't adore tender potatoes stuffed with avocado and cheese?

Ingredients

  • 4 russet potatoes
  • 1/2 cup nonfat milk
  • 8 tsp light sour cream
  • 3/4 Hass avocado, peeled and seeded, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
  • 1 cup shredded, reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, finely chopped
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Scrub potatoes with vegetable brush under cold running water. Prick potatoes with fork in several places. Place on baking sheet and bake until tender, about 1 hour; let cool for 5 minutes.
  • Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out potato, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell. Arrange shells on baking sheet.
  • In a large bowl, combine potato centers, milk, and sour cream; mash. Fold in the avocado, cheese, jalapeño, and salt.
  • Divide mixture evenly among potato shells. Bake until the cheese has melted and the potatoes are starting to brown, about 18 to 20 minutes.
