INSTRUCTIONS
Bake potatoes in a preheated oven (400 degrees) for 45 to 60 minutes. Test with a fork for doneness. Potatoes should be cooked, but firm. Cool slightly. Melt butter in a saucepan. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Run a knife around the inside edge of each potato, about 1/4 inch inside the skin to loosen pulp and then scoop out pulp with a spoon, leaving a potato shell (save potato pulp for home fries or hash). Using a pastry brush, brush melted butter inside and outside of potato shells. Put shells back into the oven on a cookie sheet for 15 minutes to brown slightly. Meanwhile, put remaining butter into a heavy skillet and heat until bubbly. Add eggs and stir until firm but not dry. Turn off the heat. Add broccoli and green onions. When potato shells have browned, remove from oven and fill with egg and broccoli mixture, dividing it equally between the 12 potato halves. Top with shredded cheese and place under a broiler until cheese is bubbly. Serve hot with warm corn muffins spread with green pepper jelly. Tips: egg substitute can be used in place of who1e egg, margarine in place of butter, and low-sodium/low-fat cheese instead of regular cheese for a more heart-hea1thy entree. Potatoes can be prepared a day ahead and kept covered with foil and refrigerated. They need only to be browned and stuffed before serving. Owner says dish is easy to make and healthy too.
