A big baked potato topped with sautéed mushrooms and a dollop of yogurt is an easy and filling meal after a long day at the office or before a game. Starting the potato in the microwave speeds up the total cooking time. I like to serve this with a salad or green beans.
Ingredients
- 1 large baking potato
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 cups chopped onions
- 0.5 cups chopped mushrooms
- salt to taste
- 2 tablespoons nonfat plain yogurt
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
-
2
Pierce potato a few times with a fork. Place onto a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high until tender but not mushy, about 10 minutes. Transfer potato to a baking dish.
-
3
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

4
While the potato is baking, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Mix in mushrooms and season with salt. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook without stirring until mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.

Remove potato from the oven. Slice halfway through the potato lengthwise and squeeze gently to open. Top with onion-mushroom mixture and yogurt.

Plum Jelly
Fresh plums right from the tree make a delicious homemade jelly that will keep in a jam jar on the pantry shelf until opened. If processing for canning then mixture should be a bit watery. The canning process will thicken the jelly.
Spinach Pasta Dough
Homemade green pasta dough is just as easy to make at home as regular fresh pasta. All you need to do is add some spinach to the dough to make a nicely colored, flavorful pasta dough that can be turned into lasagna sheets or tagliatelle. Make sure to squeeze off all the water from your spinach or the dough will be too soft and impossible to work with!
