I really had fun with this recipe, made sure to find smallish, round potatoes and had no trouble coring them out with my apple corer - a little more trouble stuffing them! Also when before putting in the oven I rubbed the skin with olive oil and salt n peppered heavily. It was a 5 star rating just to see DH's face when he cut into this. Made for I Recommend Tag 2012

WOW! My mother adores twice baked potatoes, so I took this general idea and ran with it. I stuffed it with chedder cheese, extra potato pulp, scallions, and ham. Such and awesome idea! I made my hole pretty big tho, cut into it about 2-3 times to make a large hole. Great recipe, cant wait to make it again with other stuffings, spinach is next!
