Smoked Salmon Stuffed Baked Potatoes
Step aside, bacon--these loaded baked potatoes are stuffed with smoked salmon, sour cream and chives for a fresh take on this comfort-food staple, and an easy healthy dinner.
Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes (about 8 ounces each)
- ½ cup reduced-fat sour cream
- 1 cup diced tomato
- ½ cup thinly sliced red onion
- 4 ounces smoked salmon, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 4 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
Directions
- Pierce potatoes all over with a fork. Microwave on Medium, turning once or twice, until soft, about 20 minutes. (Alternatively, bake potatoes at 425 degrees F until tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.) Transfer to a clean cutting board and let cool slightly.
- Holding them with a kitchen towel to protect your hands, make a lengthwise cut to open the potato, but don't cut all the way through. Pinch the ends to expose the flesh.
- Top each potato with some sour cream, tomato, onion, salmon and chives. Serve warm.
