• poke potatoes with the tines of a fork, and place them in the microwave oven. the more holes, the better. cook on high power for about 4 minutes per potato. check about halfway through, and turn potatoes over for even cooking. potatoes are done when they can be easily poked with a fork.
• remove potatoes from the microwave, and cut each one in half lengthwise. use a large spoon to scoop out the inside of the potatoes, leaving the skins intact. place the scoopings into a large microwave safe bowl, and stir in the 4 green onions, sour cream, processed cheese, and 1/4 cup cheddar cheese. season with garlic powder, seasoned salt, and black pepper; mix well.
• place the bowl in the microwave, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until heated through. scoop the mixture back into the potato skins to serve, or serve from the bowl. garnish with additional green onion and shredded cheese if desired.
