Ingredients
- 4 small russet potatoes scrubbed and dried
- 4 tsps grapeseed oil
- 1/8 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
- 3 tbsps nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1 green onions, sliced
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Fine sea salt
Steps
- Adjust your toaster oven’s cooking rack to the bottom or middle position and preheat to 400°F on the BAKE setting.
- Use a sharp knife or fork to stab the potatoes on each side. Rub potatoes with 1 teaspoon of the oil, place on a roasting pan, and bake until a knife slides easily into each potato, about 35 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes.
- Remove the potatoes and increase the toaster oven’s temperature to 425°F. Carefully slice the hot potatoes in half lengthwise, allow them to cool for 5 minutes or until cool enough to handle. Then scoop out the flesh leaving a thin 1/4-inch shell inside the skins.
- Combine the remaining oil and paprika. Brush both sides of the potato skins with oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Place the potato halves with the flesh facing the pan and skins facing up. Cook until crispy and browned around the edges, about 8 to 12 minutes.
- Flip potato skins over and fill each one with cheese. Bake for 5 minutes more or until the cheese is melty and bubbly. Top skins with dollops of plain Greek yogurt and sliced green onions, serve warm.
