FREEZABLE TWICE BAKED POTATOES -- OAMC

Steps:

• Wash and dry potatoes. Cook on high power in microwave in batches of 5 or 6 repeating until all potatoes are cooked. Check for doneness by gently squeezing with a clean dishtowel and removing potatoes as they become soft. Each batch will take anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes; cool to touch.
• Cut potato in half and carefully scoop pulp to within 1/4 inch of the skin, placing pulp in a large bowl; set aside shell portion.
• To potato pulp, add melted butter and next 8 ingredients; stirring to combine well. Fill each potato shell, patting filling into place. Sprinkle with paprika.
• Arrange potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer and freeze. Place individual frozen potatoes in plastic freezer bag, squeezing out air or place in a resealable freezer container. Return to freezer.
• To bake: Place frozen potatoes on a greased and foil-lined baking sheet. Bake frozen potatoes approximately 40-50 minutes at 350 degrees or until heated through.
• For defrosted potatoes, bake approximately 25 minutes.

KELL'S TWICE BAKED POTATOES OAMC

Steps:

• Scrub the best sized 12 potatoes in the bag. Poke each with a fork and bake in oven at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes.
• While those bake, peel the rest of the potatoes and boil until soft. Drain.
• Cut baked potatoes lengthwise and scoop insides into a bowl. You should end up with 24 shells. Place these on cookie sheets.
• In mixer with wire whisk, combine one package cream cheese, one stick butter, and 1/2 cup sour cream until blended.
• Add scooped insides of baked potatoes and a little less than half of the boiled potatoes and mix on low speed.
• Add some milk and mix until it is the consistency you like.
• Add garlic powder, parsley or chives, and salt. I just add it until it tastes good. I think about 1 1/2 teaspoons of each.
• Fold in half of the shredded cheddar. You can use more or less, whatever you like.
• Fill shells heaping and bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes or until tops start to brown.
• While those bake, repeat the recipe with the rest of the boiled potatoes. Place mixture in two baking dishes (foil bread pans work well) and freeze for later. ***To bake, thaw completely and bake in oven at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until top starts to brown.
• I freeze 8 of the baked filled shells individually for lunches, 8 more get frozen in a foil pan for later, and 8 end up being a side dish to dinner!

TWICE BAKED POTATOES (OAMC)

Steps:

• Bake potatoes for 1 hour in 400*F oven.
• Cut a oval wedge out of the top of each potato while still hot and scoop out pulp. Be careful to leave a small amount around the edges of the skin to help keep skin shape. Set skins aside on large baking sheet.
• Mash pulp with a hand masher to get rid of lumps. Add garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste; add butter and continue to hand mash together.
• Add the hot milk 1/4 cup at a time to prevent adding too much and use a mixer to blend together on medium speed. Add more milk and repeat as many times as necessary to get a regular mashed potato consistency.
• Add parsley. Start mixing together with wooden spoon and slowly add (a little at a time to prevent clumping) 3/4 of the cheese.Now would be the time to mix in the optional ingredients.
• Restuff the skins with the potato mixture. Bake for 15-20 minutes until tops start to turn brown. Remove and top with remaining cheese. Return to oven until top cheese is melted.
