2 medium baking potatoes
4 TBS cheddar cheese, grated
8 strips bacon
4 slices ham
4 cherry tomatoes
Toothpicks
Salad leaves
Microwave or bake potatoes until soft in center. Microwave Directions: Puncture potatoes with a fork several to prevent explosions; microwave on high five to seven minutes. Baking Directions: Preheat oven to 400-degrees F; bake potatoes for about forty-five minutes. Set aside to cool.
Cook bacon strips under the grill or in a skillet; drain on paper towels. Cut the potatoes lengthways; carefully scoop out potato into a bowl. Add half of the cheese and all the bacon to potato; mix well. Spoon mixture back into the potato skins; top with remaining grated cheese. Place potatoes under broiler for about five minutes, or until cheese melts. Take four sturdy toothpicks and thread a slice of ham on each to look like sails. Attach a cherry tomato at the top end of the toothpicks; place in the middle of the potato. Serve on a "sea" of lettuce leaves.
