Baked Potato

Instructions

  • Scrub Potatoes under water until clean. Pat dry and prick with a knife. Place Potatoes on a foil covered baking sheet. Rub each Potato with Salad Oil and sprinkle with Kosher Salt. Bake at 400° F until done. Remove from the oven and let cool 5 minutes until easy to handle.
  • With a sharp knife, cut the top 1/4 off the Potato and reserve.
  • Scoop the Potato flesh from both the top and bottom of the Potato into a bowl leaving a 1/4 inch thick shell.
  • Coarsely grate the Smoked Cheddar Cheese. ( Does that not look just delicious?)
  • In a small bowl combine the Cheese, melted Butter, Milk, Sour Cream, Salt, Pepper, Parsley and Green Onion.
  • Pour the above into the removed Baked Potato. With a hand held Potato Masher or an Electric Mixer, mash the Potatoes and other ingredients together until well combined and fluffy.
  • Like this. If you like lumps, fine. If not, continue mixing until the consistency you like.
  • Spoon the mashed Potato mixture back into the Potato Shells, mounding as high as you can.
  • Put the reserved "lid" back on the twice baked Potato. Place back into the oven for another 20 Minutes until the Potatoes are heated through and the cheese has melted.
  • OK folks....that's it! Serve alongside Meatloaf as shown, or with your own favorite Steak, Chicken or Pork recipe! Oh my goodness!!!
