Ingredients

Directions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 2: Scrub the potatoes, prick them all over with a fork, and rub them with oil and salt.

Step 3: Bake directly on the rack for 55 to 60 minutes until a knife slides in easily.

Step 4: Split each potato and fluff the inside with a fork.

Step 5: Set out the sour cream, shredded cheese, butter, tomatoes and scallions in bowls.

Step 6: Let everyone build their own and season to taste.

Chef's Tip: Rub the skins with oil and salt before baking so they turn crisp enough to eat along with the potato.

Save by using a five-pound bag of potatoes turns into six full lunches and Serve with a simple green salad.
