Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 15–20 small new potatoes
  • 1 cup (250 ml) low-fat ricotta cheese, or cottage cheese
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) grated low-fat cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400° F (205° C).

6. Fill each potato shell with 1 tsp (5 ml) of cheese and potato mixture and broil for 5-8 minutes, or until tops are lightly golden and cheese has melted.
7. Arrange on a serving dish and garnish each potato with a sprinkling of Chives. Serve immediately.
