VEGETARIAN CLASSIC POTATO SKINS
For me, this is a make-ahead recipe so the taters can cook while I'm working and I can freeze the finished product so I can easily nuke or toast them for a fast meal in the future. But these are also so delicious fresh out of the oven, I can never resist not eating at least one! :) Please note that these measurements are approximate. Sometimes I can make more than 8 potatoes but only about 4 large ones, or 6-8 little ones, will fit in my convection oven-- this recipe is to give you more of an idea of what to buy and how to make them rather than be exact.

Steps:
- Scrub the potatoes, and bake them at 375 for about 1 hour-90 minutes. Lower the oven temp to 350 when they're done.
- Let the taters cool for about 10-15 minutes, until they are cool enough to handle.
- Slice the taters in half and scoop the "meat" out. Put the meat aside to use for mish mash, home fries, potato farls, or another potato dish you'd like to make.
- Fill the hollowed tater halves with broccoli and cheeses.
- Put the filled taters back in the oven, preferably on some foil or a foiled baking sheet in case there's cheese run-off.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is browned. Salt and pepper to taste, and if you like, serve with some sour cream.
- Variation tip: replace the broccoli with some black or pinto beans to make tex-mex potato skins!

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Use small, firm potatoes that will hold their shape well when baked. Yukon Gold and Russet potatoes are good choices.
- Scrub the potatoes well: This will help remove any dirt or debris from the skin.
- Bake the potatoes until they are fork-tender: This will ensure that they are cooked through but still firm enough to hold their shape.
- Cool the potatoes slightly before scooping out the flesh: This will make it easier to handle the potatoes and prevent them from breaking.
- Use a variety of toppings: Get creative with your toppings! You can use anything from cheese and bacon to chili and sour cream.
- Serve the potato skins warm: This is when they are at their best!
Conclusion:
Mini gourmet potato skins are a delicious and easy appetizer that can be made with a variety of toppings. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they are sure to be a hit with your guests. So next time you are looking for a fun and easy appetizer, give mini gourmet potato skins a try!
