A New Spin on Baked Potatoes

Ok, so, maybe baked potatoes aren't THAT healthy, but they are better for you than their counterpart (my nemesis), french fries. All you have to do is cut a potato almost all the way through...

Drizzle with olive oil (I found this neat garlic olive oil...)


Sprinkle with a little salt, pepper, and garlic powder...

Then bake at 425 for 40 minutes. I like to broil the last 5 minutes for extra crispiness. And that's it!

I topped with a little bit of light butter and plain Greek yogurt (if you haven't tried this substitute for sour cream, it is HIGHLY recommended-- I know it sounds crazy, I was very skeptical at first too, but I promise you won't taste ONE difference!)

1 potato (without butter and Greek yogurt): 150 calories, fat: 4.5 g, fiber: 4g, carbs: 37.7 g.
