I love a good baked potato. I can eat them at almost any time with almost any meal and sometimes as a snack. I usually make them in the microwave but this is the way I make them when I need to make more than one or two at a time.

Baked Potatoes

Ingredients:

• potatoes (one for each person), washed and dried
• olive oil (about 1 t. for each potato)
• salt and pepper
• desired toppings (butter, cheese, sour cream, bacon bits, etc.)

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 300. Lightly grease a baking pan.

Pierce the skin several times with a knife or fork.

Brush the skin with olive oil, then with salt.

Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for 60-90 minutes, until softened and slightly browned.

Remove from oven and enjoy!
