Precook pepperoni (to remove exces oil and insure they are crispy) Place a couple of paper towels on a microwave safe plate, add pepperoni, in one layer cover with paper towel. Microwave on high just 10 to 20 seconds until starting to crisp up
Cut pepperoni 8nto 4 pieces for each slice
Place potatoes on foil and bake just until tender, about 25 minutes
In a bowl combine cheeses, italian seasoning, green onion and basil
When cool enough to handle, cut each potato in halve and using a teaspoon scoop out enough pulp to make a area for the cheese
Increase oven temperatire to 425. Take hollowed potatoes and place them back on foil lined baking sheet bottom up, brush with butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Return to oven to crisp skins. Bake about 10 - 15:minutes just until golden
Flip them over, brush each one with marinara sauce
