Cha-cha murphys

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 Baking potatoes (1-1/2 lb) scrubbed
cup Reduced-fat sour cream
¼ cup Buttermilk
2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro; chopped
2 tablespoons Tomato salsa
Salt & freshly ground pepper
½ cup Monterey Jack cheese OR
½ cup Sharp Cheddar cheese; grated

Directions

Pierce potatoes with a fork and wrap individually in a double thickness of paper towels. Microwave on high for 5 minutes. Rotate the potatoes and microwave on high until tender, about 5 minutes more. Unwrap the potatoes and let cool slightly.

Cut off a ¼-inch thick slice along the top of each potato. With a melon baller or teaspoon, carefully hollow out the potatoes, leaving the shells. Put the insides in a medium-sized bowl, and mash with a fork or potato masher. Add sour cream, buttermilk, cilantro and salsa; mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Fill the shells with the potato mixture. Arrange the potatoes in a microwave-safe pie plate or baking dish. Cover with vented plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 5 minutes, or until heated through. Sprinkle the potatoes with cheese and serve.
