I would not recommend this recipe. The potato baskets were bland and the filling was dry.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my potato baskets didn't come out as crispy as I would have liked.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to use a little less salt. Otherwise, it's perfect.

I've never been a big fan of potato baskets, but this recipe changed my mind. They're so light and crispy, and the filling is to die for.
