Stuffed Baked Potatoes recipe

baked potato, known in some parts of the United Kingdom (though not generally Scotland) as a jacket potato, is a potato preparation. It may be served with fillings, toppings, or condiments such as butter, cheese, sour cream, gravy, baked beans, ground meat, or corned beef.

Some varieties of potato, such as Russet and King Edward, are more suitable for baking than others, owing to their size and consistency. Despite the popular misconception that potatoes are fattening, baked potatoes can be part of a healthy diet. (Wikipedia.com)

Ingredients

4 baking potatoes

3 tablespoons butter

1 onion, chopped

10 ounces broccoli, chopped

1/2 cup ranch dressing

1 tablespoon oil

2 tablespoons parsley

salt and pepper to taste

Directions

When making Stuffed Baked Potatoes, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Pierce the potatoes a few times with a fork. Rubbing the outside of the potatoes with oil before baking helps them absorb more heat and allows the potatoes to cook quickly. Microwave potatoes for 12 minutes; then bake for 15 minutes. Slice off potato tops. Scoop out all of the potato pulp making sure not to tear the potato shell. Mash pulp in a bowl. Melt butter in a skillet. Add onion and saute for 5 minutes. Add onion, broccoli, and ranch dressing to potato pulp. Mix well. Brush the outside of potato skin shells with oil. Spoon potato mixture into shells, dividing evenly. Place on a baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley—salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
