Tuna Mayo Baked Potatoes



I got home the other night and really didn't feel like cooking.  My son had gone out and I wasn't hungry so I just needed to make something for my daughter.  She loves baked potatoes so I decided to make her some.  I cheated by microwaving the potatoes instead of baking them in the oven but hey, I'm a busy single mom who works full time so it is allowed!!  lol.

Ingredients:

2 x Potatoes
1 x Can Tuna
4 x Tablespoons Mayo
2 x Tablespoons Philadalphia Cheese
2 x Tablespoons lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
Grated chedder

Method:

Prick the potatoes with a fork.
Microwave (time depends on the size etc of the potato) these took 12 mins.
Open the tin of tuna and drain.
Mix the tuna, Philadalphia and Mayo together.
When the potatoes are done take them out of the microwave (carefully) and cut them.
Add the lemon juice to the potatoes (I use this instead of butter - it's delicious and easy on the hips)
Add the tuna mayo mixture
Sprinkle with cheese

I served these with a small ramekin of beetroot, pickled onions and olives.
