GARDEN STUFFED BAKED POTATOES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425F. Microwave pierced potatoes on high for 12 minutes. Bake for 15 minutes. (Makes a nice baked potato stopping at this point.) Slice off potato tops. Scoop out pulp, keeping skins intact. Mash pulp in a medium bowl. Meanwhile, melt butter in a small skillet. Add onion and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add onion, broccoli and salad dressing to potato pulp. Mix well. Brush outside of potato skin shells with oil. Spoon potato mixture into shells, dividing evenly. Place on a baking sheet. Bake potatoes until heated through, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley; salt and pepper to taste. For a nice variation add 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese to the potato pulp mixture, or top with the cheese before baking.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for baked potatoes because they have a fluffy texture and a thin skin that crisps up in the oven.
- Scrub the potatoes clean: Before baking, scrub the potatoes with a vegetable brush to remove any dirt or debris.
- Prick the potatoes with a fork: This will help the potatoes cook evenly and prevent them from bursting in the oven.
- Bake the potatoes until they are tender: The baking time will vary depending on the size of the potatoes, but they are generally done when they are soft when pierced with a fork.
- Let the potatoes cool slightly before stuffing them: This will make it easier to handle the potatoes and prevent the filling from becoming too hot.
- Be creative with your fillings: There are endless possibilities for fillings, so get creative and experiment with different flavors and textures.
- Top the potatoes with cheese: Cheese is a classic topping for baked potatoes, and it helps to hold the filling in place.
- Bake the potatoes until the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will take about 5-10 minutes.
- Serve the potatoes immediately: Baked potatoes are best served hot out of the oven.
