Recipe - Roasted Potatoes With Cream Cheese And Sun-Dried Tomato Fil

A; (1/2pound) russet
; (baking) potato
1 tablespoon Olive oil
3 tablespoon Cream cheese; softened
2 tablespoon Minced drained bottle
sundried tomatoes
; in oil
1 tablespoon Minced scallion greens

Cut twelve 1/4inchthick rounds from the middle of the potato, discarding
the ends, pat them dry with paper towels, and brush them on both sides with
the oil. Roast the potato slices on a baking sheet in the upper third of a
preheated 500F. oven for 6 minutes, or until the undersides are golden.
Turn the slices, roast them for 6 minutes more, or until the undersides are
golden and crisp, and let them cool until they can be handled.

While the potatoes are roasting, in a bowl stir together the cream cheese,
the tomatoes, the scallion, and salt and pepper to taste. Spread the
filling on half the potato slices, top it with the remaining potato slices,
pressing the slices together to form sandwiches, and halve the sandwiches.

Makes 12 hors d'oeuvres, serving 2.
