Microwave Combi Recipe: Loaded Potato Skins or Wedges

There is nothing better than potato skins – especially when those potato skins are loaded with goodies like bacon cheese and sour cream.

This recipe is more healthy – ditching the deep fryer and also fast, because the microwave combination oven speeds up the cooking time of the potatoes while giving a great crisp result.

If you want to use the whole potato, you can cut your potatoes into wedges and par cook them in salted water for 5 minutes , dry them off well and complete the recipe as written but they will require a few more minutes to cook.

Be creative with the toppings and have some fun with this recipe.
