Big Potatoes

Looking for a way to save money? The E in POTATO stands for “excellent.”

Microwave a big one until really mushy, with the skin all thick and wrinkled . . . add lots of salt and pepper and a tall glass of V8 . . . and you’ve got a healthy fat-free lunch for about a dollar. Save $4 a day this way for a year and, apart from helping to shed an unwanted pound or two, you’re $1,400 richer.

Careful: don’t burn the roof of your mouth.
