Sliced Baked Potatoes (This is a very easy way to give the bland potato a lot of new flavor. The light coating of butter and cheese gives the potatoes a crisp outside. - Taken from the recipe card).

For 4 servings:
1. 4 medium potatoes
2. 1 tsp salt
3. 2-3 Tbsp melted butter
4. 2-3 Tbsp chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, thyme or sage OR 2-3 tsp dried herbs of your choice
5. 4 Tbsp grated cheddar cheese
6. 1.5 Tbsp Parmesan cheese

1. Peel potatoes if skin is tough, otherwise just scrub/rinse them.
2. Cut potatoes into thin slices but not all the way through. Use a handle of a spoon to prevent knife from cutting all the way.
3. Put potatoes in a baking dish. Fan them slightly.
4. Sprinkle with salt and drizzle with butter. Sprinkle with herbs.
5. Bake potatoes at 425 for about 50 minutes.
6. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with cheeses.
7. Bake potatoes for another 10-15 minutes until lightly browned, cheeses are melted and potatoes are soft inside.
