BBQ Stuffed Baked Potato
(This is for my Mother and Aunt who got me hooked on them.)
 
Please note that there are two recipes here.
I combined both of the ones I had to keep from having multiple pages.

Microwave Oven

Ingredients:

4 (6-ounce) baking potatoes
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
2 green onions, finely chopped and divided
1 1/3 cups shredded Barbecue (your choice of meat)
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese (can be low fat)
Butter or your choice of butter substitute

Preparation:

Pierce the potatoes with a fork in several places so that they do not explode in the microwave while cooking and arrange them in a circle on paper towels in a microwave oven. Microwave on high for 10 minutes or until done, rearranging potatoes after 5 minutes.

While the potatoes are cooking, combine the sour cream and onions. Set the mixture to the side.

Remove the potatoes from the microwave and allow them to cool to the touch.

Place the BBQ in a microwave safe bowl and cover with a lid or plastic wrap, but do not allow plastic wrap to touch food if you use that method.

Remove potatoes from microwave and place the BBQ in microwave. Microwave the BBQ on high for 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated.

Slice the warm potatoes lengthwise, cutting almost to but not through the skin on the bottom of the potato. Fluff the insides of the potatoes with a fork and add butter to taste. 

Top each potato evenly with the sour cream mixture, cheese, and the remaining onions. Divide the BBQ into equal portions and add it to the top of the potatoes.

 Serve and enjoy!
