INSTRUCTIONS
Pierce potato with tines of fork; microwave on HIGH about 8 minutes
until potato is fork-tender. Halve and scoop out potato, leaving
1/4-inch shells. In bowl mash potato pulp. Mix in cottage cheese and
enough milk for a moist but firm consistency. Mix in sunflower nuts,
green pepper, carrot, onions, half the Cheddar cheese and the pepper
to blend thoroughly. Season with salt. Mound into potato shells,
dividing equally. Sprinkle with remaining Cheddar cheese. Microwave on
HIGH about 2 minutes until cheese is melted and potatoes are heated
through. Garnish with tomatoes. NOTE: Microwave cooking times are
based on a 700-watt microwave. Adjust cooking times to your own oven.
