Pesto Stuffed Potatoes

4 large Idaho potatoes

1/2 C. ricotta cheese

1/3 C. prepared pesto

salt and pepper to taste

Scrub potatoes and prick with a fork. Bake at 400°F. for 1 hour 15 minutes or until potatoes yield to the touch.

Cut the very top off the potatoes and scoop out the pulp, leaving a potato shell. Place shells on a greased baking sheet.

Mash potatoes in a bowl. Add the ricotta, pesto, salt and pepper. Spoon back into shells. Bake for 15 minutes at 350°F. or until tops turn golden.
