Instructions
On a large dinner plate, place the clean red potatoes on the plate. Stab the potatoes with a fork at least in two different places.
Microwave on high for ten minutes or until the potatoes are tender to a fork insertion.
When soft, smash the potatoes with a fork. Then spread the butter over all the smashed potatoes.
Season with the salt and pepper. Then add the garlic, if you are using it.
Cover in the shredded cheese. Microwave for another minute. If the cheese is not melted, microwave in 30-second increments until melted.
Top the potatoes with any additional toppings you like on loaded potatoes including sour cream, chives, and bacon bits.
