Time 1h10m

Yield 8 potato halves, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large baking potatoes
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup finely chopped green pepper
1/4 cup chopped scallion
2 (6 ounce) cans albacore tuna in water, drained and flaked
2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Scrub potatoes, prick with fork, bake in 400 degree oven for 1 hour.
  • When cool enough to handle, cut potatoes in half lengthwise, scoop out potato pulp into large bowl, leaving shells intact.
  • Combine pulp with mayo, cheddar, green pepper, scallions and tuna. Mix well.
  • Stuff potato shells.
  • Bake at 400 for 10 minutes.
  • (Can also drizzle a little melted butter over the top and pass under the broiler until sizzling and browned, but this is considered rather decadent. You decide.).
