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.

Air Fryer Latkes
Potato latkes are usually fried, on top of the stove, but the air fryers on the market right now are a great way to prepare this popular dish. This method yields a crispy latke that can be an appetizer or a dinner side. If you have an oil sprayer, you can use your oil of choice. I used purchased avocado oil spray, to give that beautiful brown color. Serve with sour cream or applesauce, if desired. Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container, up to 5 days.
Pudding Poke Cake
This recipe uses Jell-O instant pudding and yellow cake mix. The baked cake is poked with holes, then covered with chocolate pudding, making it look striped when cut.
