I lost 40 pounds while eating a baked potato for dinner 3-4 times per week! They are low calorie and low fat and soooo good they taste like a treat. And they are so versatile you can prepare them in a different way each time you eat them so you don't get bored. Easy on the wallet too!

We had roasted red potatoes for dinner tonight! Even my little guy thought they tasted good! Of course we called them french fries that were baked. :)
