Twice Baked Potatoes » RecipeCollage.com » November 22, 2024 — It’s been a long time since we posted on the site. Funny how life can change so quickly. We are glad to be back!! This is a favorite around here, the kids love twice baked potatoes.

3 large potatoes
Butter
Salt and Pepper
thin slices of swiss
4-5 TBSP of grated mozzarella/aged cheddar
half cup of sliced green onions
sour cream(optional)

Twice Baked Potatoes » RecipeCollage.com » November 22, 2024 — Place potatoes in oven directly on rack at 400degrees for roughly 45 minutes to an hour. Depending how large your potatoes are, will depend on how long they cook for. We like to stick them with a wooden kebab stick to check for doneness but a knife piercing them works too. Once fully cooked take a sharp knife and cut down centre, they are hot so be careful. We then leave them on counter for just a couple minutes to cool. We find this makes it much easier to work with the potato. Then take out all the potato, spoon works good for this. We lightly mash them with some butter, salt and pepper. I don’t find it needs milk. With the cheese that goes on top.

Careful fill all the potatoes back up with the mashed taters. Then we put a slice of Swiss, grated mozza and aged cheddar, then top it off with a couple of sliced green onions. Baked 400 degree til cheese it melted. You can also put under broiler for a minute for cheese to brown. I much prefer it this way but the kids do not.

Twice Baked Potatoes » RecipeCollage.com » November 22, 2024 — Takes 4-5 minutes in oven. If you don’t like our choice of cheeses you use what you like and have on hand. Tastes great with lots of different kinds but this is our favorite.

Twice Baked Potatoes » RecipeCollage.com » November 22, 2024 — We served roasted carrots and spareribs with the potatoes. If you like sour cream can always serve a scoop of that with potato as well.
