Scored Potatoes

SUBMITTED BY: Barbara Wheeler 

"These well-seasoned baked potatoes are a fun alternative to plain baked potatoes. It's easy to help yourself to just the amount you want, too, since the potato halves are scored into sections. My mom serves them alongside any meat."

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 large baking potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted, divided
  • 1/8 teaspoon paprika
