Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat the conventional oven to 450F.
  2. Place the potatoes in a microwavesafe, ovenproof glass baking dish, such as a pie plate, that fits in the microwave oven. Microwave the potatoes at full power for 10 minutes (the amount of time it takes to preheat the oven). Transfer the potatoes to the conventional oven and bake until tender, about 20 minutes.
  3. Ten to 15 minutes before the potatoes are done baking, heat the oil in a large skillet over mediumhigh heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until lightly browned, chopping and turning as needed with a spatula so the turkey browns evenly, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add the seasoning to the skillet, followed by the peas, carrots, green beans, tomatoes and gravy to make the stew. Stir gently to combine and simmer for 5 minutes. Keep warm.
  5. To serve: Cut each potato in half across its equator and set each half, cutside down on a plate so that it looks like a small mountain. Cut a slit in the top of each potato half and squeeze the sides gently forcing some of the potato to erupt from the top. Ladle 1 cup of the stew over each potato to resemble flowing lava; serve immediately.
  6. Tip: We know theres nothing new about microwavebaked potatoes, but the technique in this recipe is a little different and gives much fluffier results. The problem with microwaving baking potatoes is that microwave ovens dont really bake they steam so the potatoes come out damp and dense instead of light and fluffy. You can quickly and easily get the best of both worlds by simultaneously preheating a conventional oven while the potatoes start cooking in a microwave oven. Then, when both the potatoes and the oven are hot, you place the spuds in the conventional oven, and they finish baking in about 20 minutes. The results are identical to ovenbaking, but cooked in about half the time.
