Notes
- Try our Horseradish/Mayonnaise Sauce as an alternative to sour cream.
- To bake potatoes using a microwave oven, scrub potatoes until clean and pat dry. Prick the top of each potato several times with the tines of a fork. Microwave on high until tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from microwave and wrap in aluminum foil with the shiny side toward the potato. Keep wrapped until ready to serve.
