Ingredients

4 small russet potatoes (about 1 1/4 pound total)

1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley leaves
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Poke each potato with a fork a few times. Place on a baking sheet lined with foil and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until they are easily pierced with a knife. Wrap them loosely in the foil for 5 minutes or until ready to serve.

If using regular yogurt, place it in a strainer lined with paper towel and set the strainer over a bowl. Let the yogurt drain and thicken for 20 minutes.

Combine the Greek-style yogurt or regular thickened yogurt, the oil, parsley and chives of the in a small bowl.

Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise and dollop a tablespoon of the creamy herb topping on each half.

Pretty Good!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I couldn't really taste the oil, so I think I'll make it without next time. It needed salt...I think garlic salt would be a... nice addition. Definitely try this. I imagine I saved hundreds of calories not using the typical butter, sour cream and cheese. It was actually really good.Read more

Yummy
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I didn't have fresh veggies, so I just added seasonings instead. I drained some nonfat plain yogurt, didn't add oil, but... added onion powder, garlic powder, and white pepper. It was so flavorful and creamy on a hot potato. That alone is a full meal! This is a simple recipe to play around with and make your own.Read more

I'm hooked on Greek non-fat yogurt
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I don't think I could ever see a need for sour cream again. I'm eating my baked potato with the non-fat yogurt mixed with... fresh dill, garlic and fresh ground salt & pepper. Didn't even add any oil. It is wonderful!Read more

Wonderful!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This recipe makes for a very tasty baked potato! If you want to make your potato on the fly, just wash it real good, poke it... with a fork a few times and stick it in the microwave for 3 minutes for a medium size potato, flip it over and do another 3 minutes. Done! You could never tell it wasn't baked in the oven. Adding a lil shredded cheddar cheese on top makes it extra yummy! -- but more fattening too.Read more
