Sliced Baked Potatoes

4 medium potatoes (shaped long)

1 tsp salt

2 to 3 Tbsp melted butter

2 to 3 Tbsp chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, thyme, sage, rosemary OR 2 to 3 tsp of dried herbs of your choice

4 Tbsp grated Cheddar cheese

1½ Tbsp Parmesan cheese

Peel potatoes if the skin is tough, otherwise just scrub and rinse them.

Cut potatoes into thin slices but not all the way through. Use a handle of a wooden spoon to prevent knife from cutting all the way. Put potatoes in a baking dish. Fan them slightly. Sprinkle with salt and drizzle with butter. Sprinkle with herbs.

Bake potatoes in a 425 F degree oven for about 50 minutes.

Remove from oven. Sprinkle with cheeses. Bake potatoes for another 10 to 15 minutes until lightly browned, cheeses are melted, and potatoes are soft inside. Check with a fork.

NOTE: IÂve also made these on the barbecue by adding onion slices between the layers, spices, herbs, and wrapping the potato in foil.
