Caramelized Onion-Stuffed Baked Potato image

Recipe comes courtesy of Cooking Light magazine (March 2005 edition). This is definately a different way to stuff a potato and it is very delicious! Only adjustment I made to the recipe was the cooking process of the end potato. Recipe says to microwave the fully stuffed potato to melt the cheese, but I placed them in the oven for about 5 minutes with the other dish I was preparing and it worked just fine. If you like potatoes, definately give this one a try.

I followed the recipe exactly and my potatoes turned out dry and overcooked.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper to the filling and it helped a lot.

I'm not a big fan of onions, but I really enjoyed these potatoes. The caramelized onions were sweet and not at all overpowering.

These potatoes were easy to make and turned out great. I used a combination of white and sweet potatoes, which gave them a nice contrast in flavor and texture.

These potatoes were amazing! I've never had caramelized onions before and now I'm hooked. They're so sweet and flavorful. The potatoes were cooked perfectly and the filling was creamy and cheesy. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

This was my first time making stuffed baked potatoes and they came out perfectly. The recipe was easy to follow and the results were delicious. I especially loved the crispy potato skin.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The caramelized onions are the key to the dish - they're so flavorful and sweet. I like to add a little bit of chopped bacon to the filling for an extra layer of flavor.

These stuffed potatoes were a hit with my family! The caramelized onions added a delicious sweetness and depth of flavor. The potatoes were fluffy and perfectly baked. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
