Red Potatoes with Caviar and Cheese Recipe

New red potatoes are stuffed with a mixture of cream cheese, buttermilk, dill, and caviar. The potatoes may be cooked in the microwave or baked in the oven. This classy side dish is both low-calorie and low-fat.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

• 12 new red potatoes (about 1 pound), scrubbed
• 3 Tablespoons Neufchatel cheese
• 1 Tablespoon low-fat (1 percent) buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon chopped dill
• 1 Tablespoon black lumpfish caviar

Preparation:

Place the potatoes in a single layer in a shallow microwavable container; cook on high until fork-tender, about 3 minutes. Alternately, bake the potatoes at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.

Cut the potatoes in half; place, cut-side down, on a platter. With a spoon or a melon baller, make a small well in the top of each potato.

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese and buttermilk until smooth. With a rubber spatula, fold in the dill and caviar.

Dollop about 3/4 teaspoon of the mixture into the well of each potato.
