Ingredients

  • 4 medium baking potatoes
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine
  • 1/4 cup light cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions or chives
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 (6 ounce) can crabmeat - drained, flaked and cartilage removed or imitation crabmeat
  • Paprika

Directions

  1. Bake potatoes at 425 degrees F for 45-55 minutes or until tender. When cool enough to handle, halve potatoes lengthwise. Carefully scoop out pulp into a bowl, leaving a tin shell. Set shells aside. Beat or mash potato pulp with butter, cream, salt and pepper until smooth. Using a fork, stir in onions or chives and cheese. Gently mix in crab. Stuff shells. Sprinkle with paprika. Return to the oven for 15 minutes or until heated through.
