Prick the potatoes with a fork a few times and place the potatoes on a non-stick cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 1 hour or until tender. Remove the potatoes from the oven and set aside to cool for 5 minutes. Split the potatoes open and top with your choice of (or all of) the suggested toppings.
*Variation: Add steamed and chopped vegetables, such as broccoli or peppers, or ladle your favorite vegetarian chili over the baked potatoes before adding the other toppings for a hearty side or main dish.
