Ingredients

  • 12 new potatoes, pierced with a fork in several areas
  • 16 slices pepperoni, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 oz. grated mozzarella
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan
  • 1 tbsp canola oil
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped roasted red peppers
  • 2 tsp dried basil leaves

  2. Meanwhile, combine the remaining ingredients in a small bowl, fluff with a fork.

  3. Remove potatoes from microwave and let stand 10 minutes for easier handling. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise, place potato halves, cut side up, on 2 microwave-safe dinner plates, spoon equal amounts of the pepperoni mixture on each potato half. Working with one plate at a time, microwave on HIGH for 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese is melted slightly. Let stand 3 minutes before serving. Serve warm.
