1/4 c Shredded Cheddar Cheese 1 x Milk

Scrub baking potatoes with a brush. Prick with a fork in several
places. Place potatoes in a shallow baking dish. Micro-cook,
uncovered, on 100% power for 6 to 8 minutes or till potatoes are
tender. Cut a lengthwise slice from the top of each potato. Discard
the skin from the lengthwise slices, place the potato portions from
the lengthwise slices in a mixing bowl. Scoop out the insides of the
potatoes leaving two 1/4-inch thick shells; reserve the shells. Add
the insides of the potatoes to the mixing bowl containing the potato
portions from the top slices; mash. Stir in shredded cheddar cheese,
butter or margarine and sliced green onion. Beat in enough milk to
give the mixture a stiff consistency. Season to taste with salt and
freshly ground pepper. Pile the mashed potato mixture into the
reserved potato shells. Return to the shallow baking dish.
Micro-cook, uncovered, on 100% power for 2 to 3 minutes or till
potato mixture is heated through. Sprinkle with paprika, if desired.
