Baked Potato Fans

4 medium baking potatoes

3 Tbsp. butter or margarine, melted

¼ tsp. garlic salt

¼ c. shredded cheddar cheese

3 Tbsp. snipped chives or sliced green onions

2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese

Scrub potatoes thoroughly with a brush; pat dry.  Cut potatoes crosswise into thin slices, but do not cut all the way through. Place potatoes in a shallow baking dish or pan.  Gently press potatoes down to fan slightly.  Combine melted butter and garlic salt; drizzle over potatoes.  Bake, covered, in a 350 oven for 50 minutes. Uncover and bake about 15 minutes more or until tender. Transfer potatoes to a serving platter.  Sprinkle cheddar cheese, chives, and Parmesan cheese.  Let stand about 5 minutes or until cheeses melt.
