Paula Deen Idea of a Diet

[Trilby]

Paula was on tonight and said her hubby is "finally!" eating better and on a diet; so, this is what Paula made for him:

Cream Cheese Stuffed New Potatoes

Red caviar, for garnish, optional
Finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, softened
1/3 cup whipping cream
Freshly ground black pepper
1 (5-ounce) package soft garlic herb cheese (recommended: Boursin)
24 bite-size new potatoes, scrubbed, with a tiny sliver cut off each potato so they will stand after filling
Salt

Directions
In a large pot with plenty of salted water, boil the potatoes until they are tender when a fork is inserted, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and let the potatoes cool until you can handle them.

With a melon baller, remove a scoop from each potato. Combine the cheese, butter, and cream. Taste, and add salt and pepper, as needed. Spoon or pipe the cheese mixture into the potatoes.

Garnish with a fine sprinkling of parsley. Stand potatoes on cut end on a platter to serve.


God I love this woman!
