Our potato skins are like a baked, stuffed potato but with a crispier outside. Toss on some chopped spinach or broccoli if desired, and serve them up hot.

Ingredients
1 sprays cooking spray
2 large potato(es), baked, cooled completely, quartered lengthwise*
1/3 cup pizza sauce
2 oz pepperoni, finely chopped
1/3 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/8 tsp dried oregano, red pepper flakes or garlic, or to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425ºF. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.

Slice top half or two thirds of potato flesh off each potato quarter. (Reserve potato flesh for soup or mashed potatoes, if desired). Spoon about 2 teaspoons of pizza sauce over each potato wedge; sprinkle wedges with pepperoni and then with cheese.

Carefully place potato skins on prepared baking sheet. Bake until cheese melts and potatoes are hot, about 6 to 8 minutes. Season to taste with oregano, red pepper flakes or garlic. Yields 2 potato skins per serving.
Notes
*Make sure the potatoes are cooled completely before slicing and scooping out the flesh or you may have a hard time forming the skins.

Thinly sliced, Italian-style cooked chicken sausage also makes a tasty pizza topping; try it instead of pepperoni (may affect POINTS values).

ENJOY!!!
