    This has been a hit with company for years. You can substitute shrimp if crabmeat is not available, but the crabmeat really makes this dish!

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    2 cups crabmeat
    4 large baking potatoes
    4 tablespoons butter
    1/2 cup onion -- chopped
    1/2 cup mushrooms -- sliced
    ground pepper -- to taste
    1 cup dry vermouth
    2 tablespoons low-fat plain yogurt
    2 tablespoons sour cream
    1/4 cup half and half
    3/4 cup Gruyere cheese

    Clean and bake potatoes. Cool slightly and cut in half, lengthwise. Place pulp into bowl, leaving about 1/4-inch shell. Reserve skins and mash pulp. Melt butter in skillet and saute onion until it takes on a light coloring (about 15-20 minutes). Add mushrooms and saute another 5 minutes. Add the crabmeat and pepper. Add vermouth and bring to a boil. Make sure you stir frequently. Cook mixture until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and add yogurt and sour cream, then add half and half. Combine crabmeat, onion mixture, pulp from potato, and about 1/2 of cheese. Add additional ground black pepper and a bit more half and half if desired. Place the mixture into the potato skins. Sprinkle with additional 1/4 cup cheese. Bake at 400 degrees F. until cheese bubbles.

    Judi's notes: I have made this many times and it is yummy good!
