- 4 medium russet potatoes

Instructions
- Scrub the potatoes clean under running water. Using a fork, poke each potato 5 to 6 times to allow steam to escape during cooking.
- Place the potatoes on a microwave-safe plate and cook on high. Adjust the cooking time based on the number of potatoes: 5 to 6 minutes for one, 10 to 11 minutes for two, or 15 to 16 minutes for four. Use a towel or oven mitt to check if they're soft enough.
- Carefully remove the potatoes from the microwave, make a slit on top, fluff the insides with a fork, and add your favorite healthy toppings. DEVOUR!
