These potato skins have a southwestern kick that helps to create the perfect snack. The unusual pairing of lime and potato gives them a festive flavor that, with the creamy dressing, makes them a true treat.
Ingredients
- 1¼ lbs. red potatoes, baked
Vegetable oil spray
½ tsp. garlic powder

½ tsp. lime zest
1½ Tbsp. lime juice
- 1 tsp. chives
