CRISPY HALF-BAKED POTATOES
Serves 4
2 medium potatoes (about 2/3 pound) 2 teaspoons olive oil 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese Coarsely ground pepper, to taste

Serving Suggestions Tired of the same old baked or roasted potato? Try these potatoes with the crusty top. For variation, add different herbs of your choice to cheese mixture before coating potatoes. Add 1 teaspoon lemon juice to oil before brushing potatoes. Serve with BLT Burgers or with your favorite roast, like Boneless Pork Loin Roast with Herbed Pepper Rub.
