Recipe from Eating Well magazine:

*I only used two potatoes, yet I did not cut the rest of the ingredients in half.  It made the perfect amount for two adults for dinner.

• 4 medium russet potatoes, scrubbed
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 cup diced onion
• 1 pound fresh spinach, finely chopped <I used fresh> OR 4 cups frozen chopped spinach (thawed)
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried
• 1/3 cup reduced-fat cream cheese <I used full fat>
• 3/4 teaspoon ground pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 cup crumbled feta cheese, divided
• <I added a few tablespoons of pine nuts - SOO good!!> 
• <I also added chopped kalmata olives to my potatoes - SOOO good!!!!>

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Pierce potatoes in several places with a fork. Bake directly on the center rack until tender, 50 to 60 minutes. Let stand until cool enough to handle.
3. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 2 to 4 minutes. Add spinach, garlic and oregano; cook, stirring, until hot, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat.
4. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F.
5. Cut the potatoes in half and scoop the insides into a bowl. Place the skins in a 9-by-13-inch pan. Add cream cheese, pepper and salt to the bowl. Beat with a hand mixer or mash with a potato masher until smooth. Stir in the spinach mixture and 1/2 cup feta. Stuff each potato skin with about 3/4 cup of the filling. Top each with 1 tablespoon of the remaining feta <and pine nuts and/or kalmata olives, if using>.
6. Bake until the filling is steaming and the feta is browned, 25 to 35 minutes.
