Microwaveable and no-oven required — a baked potato topped with classic pizza fixings. Ideal for dorms, RVs, or quick lunches.

Ingredients

  • 1 large baking potato
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 3 tablespoons canned pizza sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
  • cheese

Directions

  1. Poke the potato a few times with a fork. Place the potato on a plate
  2. in the microwave. Cook at full power for 6 minutes, then let rest for
  3. 2 minutes.
  4. While the potato is cooking, preheat a toaster oven to 400 degrees
  5. F (200 degrees C). Coat the potato with oil and sprinkle with salt.
  6. Place the potato into the toaster oven so that it is sitting directly on
  7. the rack.
  8. Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated toaster oven. Remove the
  9. potato and place it on the tray that comes with the toaster oven.
  10. Make a cut lengthwise that is about 1/4 of the way through the
  11. potato. It should pop open without splitting in half. Press the ends
  12. together slightly to open it up more and use a fork to fluff the interior
  13. while mixing in the butter. Spoon Pizza sauce over the potato and
  14. top with mozzarella cheese.
  15. Return the potato (on the tray) to the toaster oven and cook for 10
  16. more minutes, or until cheese is golden brown.
