Preparation

Step 1

1. Scrub potatoes, prick with fork, bake in 400 degree oven for 1 hour.
2. When cool enough to handle, cut potatoes in half lengthwise, scoop out potato pulp into large bowl, leaving shells intact.
3. Combine pulp with mayo, cheddar, green pepper, scallions and tuna. Mix well.
4. Stuff potato shells.
5. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes.
6. (Can also drizzle a little melted butter over the top and pass under the broiler until sizzling and browned, but this is considered rather decadent. You decide.).
