Ingredients
Instructions
- Scrub and pierce the potatoes, then bake in a preheated oven at 400°F for 45 to 50 minutes until tender.
- While potatoes are baking, cook the ground meat, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped green pepper, and sliced mushrooms in a heavy skillet over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink, stirring occasionally.
- Add marinara sauce, sliced black olives, oregano, and cinnamon to the skillet, then simmer for 10 to 15 minutes to blend flavors.
- Once potatoes are baked, split them lengthwise and press the ends together to open up the centers.
- Fluff the potato centers with a fork, then top each with a serving of the meat sauce.
- Finish by topping each stuffed potato with a dollop of low-fat plain yogurt before serving.
