Ingredients
4 medium potatoes
4 cups frozen mixed vegetables
1 cup non-fat sour cream
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
Black pepper to taste
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before beginning preparation.
Rinse each medium potato under cool running water to remove any dirt. Using a fork, prick each potato 5 to 6 times on all sides to allow steam to escape during cooking.
Place the pierced potatoes on a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high power for 12 to 16 minutes total, turning each potato halfway through cooking. The potatoes are done when a knife or fork easily pierces the thickest part with no resistance.
While the potatoes cook, place the frozen mixed vegetables in a steamer basket or microwave-safe container with a small amount of water. Steam for 5 to 7 minutes until the vegetables are heated through and tender.
In a small bowl, combine the non-fat sour cream with the dried oregano, dried basil, and black pepper to taste. Mix until the herbs are evenly distributed throughout the sour cream.
Once the potatoes are tender, carefully cut each one in half lengthwise. Gently fluff the insides with a fork.
Divide the steamed vegetables evenly among the potato halves, spooning them into the center of each. Top each portion with a generous dollop of the herb-flavored sour cream. Serve immediately while hot.
Comments
Every ingredient is stocked at every Charlotte chain, and a baked potato with sour cream and herbs costs under $2 per serving. The 30-minute claim glosses over baking time, though: potatoes need 45 to 50 minutes in a standard oven, so plan for 75 minutes from start to plate, not 30. The dish is forgiving, hands-off while baking, and leftovers reheat well, making it solid for a family weeknight despite the longer oven commitment than advertised.
