Media Crema

7 oz. Can

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 medium (about 1 ½ pounds total) russet potatoes, scrubbed clean
  • Olive oil
  • 1/3 cup Nestlé® Media Crema
  • ¼ cup refrigerated pesto with basil
  • 2 tablespoons freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • Chopped green onions or chives

MAKE IT

Step 1

Pierce potatoes with tines of a fork a few times; rub with oil. Place on microwave-safe plate; microwave on HIGH (100%) power, turning and rotating halfway through, for 10 to 12 minutes or until soft.

Step 2

Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out potato flesh into a medium bowl, leaving the skins intact. Mash potatoes with potato masher or fork; stir in media crema, pesto, cheese, salt and pepper. Stuff mixture back into potato skins. Place on baking sheet.

Step 3

Bake at 350° F for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. Sprinkle with green onions. Sprinkle with additional cheese, if desired.
