FROM: Cajun Cuisine

INGREDIENTS

4 large white potatoes
3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup whipping or light cream
Cayenne pepper, to taste
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons grated onions
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 to 1-1/2 cups grated sharp yellow cheese
1 pound white crab meat
Paprika

Scrub potatoes; dry thoroughly. Bake at 325 degrees until you can easily pierce with fork (about 1-1/2 hours).

Cut lengthwise; scoop out potatoes, leaving enough potato to hold shell firmly together.

Whip potato with butter, cream, pepper, garlic powder, onion, parsley, green onion, salt and cheese; mix crab meat into this mixture lightly.

Refill the potato shells with mixture; sprinkle generously with paprika. Reheat at 400 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes.

Makes 8 servings

NOTE - These can be served on a bed of lettuce with a few sprigs of parsley for decoration.
