A few days ago, my parents donated a ten pound bag of potatoes to me. So today I decided to bake 10 of them so I would have them ready to take to work or ready for a light lunch or snack. It doesn't get much easier than this. Really. A monkey could do this. In fact, I've SEEN a monkey do this.
Wash the potatoes. Poke holes in them with a fork. (this also works as a fantastic way to get agression out. Be careful, though. If your potato turns into something that looks like has browns, and your face is red and your eyes are crossed and you're sweating, dude, call your therapist and leave the poor potatoes alone. )
Now rub your potatoes with olive oil, and then roll them in coarse salt.
Put them in the oven at 425 degrees for 45 minutes.
