EASY TWICE BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Bake potatoes in a 375 degree oven 1 to 1 1/2 hours until done.
• When potatoes are done let them cool 10-15 minutes.
• Then slice them in half lengthwise.
• Using a spoon carefully scoop out the potato, leaving a little on skin so they don't break. Save the skins.

• Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.

EASY TWICE-BAKED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prick sweet potatoes with a fork. Bake until soft, about 50 minutes. Let cool slightly on a rack.
• Cut a lengthwise slit in potatoes almost all the way through, leaving about 1 inch at each end intact. Scoop out flesh, leaving a 1/2-inch border on skins. Put flesh in a medium nonreactive bowl, then transfer half to a food processor. Process until smooth; return to bowl. Stir in sour cream, 6 tablespoons softened butter, 1 cup brown sugar, lemon juice, and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Transfer sweet potato mixture in batches to a pastry bag fitted with a very large round tip. Pipe mixture into 12 of the potato shells, dividing evenly; discard remaining 2 shells. Filled shells can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 day. Just before serving, top with remaining 3/4 cup brown sugar, the sliced butter, and pecans; arrange marshmallows on top. Bake on a rimmed baking sheet until hot and marshmallows are golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes.

SUPER EASY TWICE BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Clean the potatoes. Put all 4 potatoes in the microwave on the baked potato setting. I've shared this for dinner for four, and ingredients should be adjusted according to your number of potatoes. And you can not overload these enough, you can choose a different meat other than the chopped ham I've chosen, or choose to not use meat at all. Also, I sometimes will add a hot pepper diced up for my family members who enjoy the more spicy foods. They are so easy to make, takes less than one hour total. Super easy!
• While potatoes are in the microwave, dice onions, 1/2 to 1 clove garlic( garlic according to your like), ham, stalk from the green onion into small pieces. Cream together the sour cream, salsa, butter and spices, ham, and other ingredients. If you use a clove of garlic, do not use the ingredient garlic salt. :)
• When the potatoes are done microwaving, allow them to cool about ten minutes. After they have cooled a bit, slit them down the middle making sure not to go from end to end. Gently open the potato enough that you can get a small scoop, (I use a small melon ball scoop), clean out the potato leaving only the shell.
• Mix together the potatoes with all the other ingredients, gently fill each potato shell with the potato mixture. Wrap each potato in foil, and bake for another 30 to 40 minutes in preheated 350 degree oven. Open the foil just enough before taking them out to allow them to brown at the top, sprinkle with your choice of cheese. Simple, easy twice baked potato. Loaded with options of what you would like to load your potato with.
