Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
2. Wash and dry potatoes. Prick the skins. Bake for 60 minutes, or until done.
3. Cut an oval slice from the top of each potato, and scoop out the pulp. In a blender, whip cottage cheese until creamy. Mash the potato pulp, and blend in enough of the whipped cottage cheese to make a light, fluffy mixture. Stir in the scallions. Spoon the mixture back into the potato shells, mounding it slightly.
4. Place stuffed potatoes on a baking sheet. Dust the tops with Parmesan cheese and paprika, and return to the oven until lightly browned.
