directions

Scrub and prick potatoes all over.
Wrap individually in paper towels and microwave on high for about 10 min or until potatoes are soft, turning half way. (*I usually time it for 5 minutes for 1 potato and 2 minutes per additional potato*)
Preheat oven to 400°F
Slice tops off of potatoes and scoop out flesh into bowl leaving a thin wall in skin.
Mash flesh with butter, milk, mustard, salt and pepper until smooth and well blended.
Stir in broccoli, ham and cheese.
Spoon mixture back into skins heaping if necessary.
Place on baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes or until heated through and tops are golden.

A very quick weeknight meal. I had some broccoli that needed to be used, so I whipped these up, scaling it down to two potatoes. I used half milk and half sour cream for a little extra creamyness, and Dijon mustard. DH & I both enjoyed these filling & nutritious potatoes with a salad and whole-wheat rolls.

This was great! I used fresh cubed tomatoes instead of the broccoli and omitted the ham. I put in an egg white I had left over from another recipe. I didn't need the milk at all. I also added a dash of nutmeg. I finished this in the microwave (not the oven) 3-4 mins at high until the cheese melted and the egg was cooked. My picky DH loved it and it was a great quick weeknight dinner, with the addition of some salad. Thanks for posting!

Good, healthy potatoes for a light dinner. I needed a bit more milk and cheese, but I really enjoyed them. I have one in the freezer, I will comment on how that reheats later!

These are a great way to use leftover ham, and make a nice, simple meal. I baked the potatoes in the oven (rather than microwave), used Dijon (rather than honey mustard), and added extra cheese (cheddar and monterey jack). I put them together ahead of time, then just added extra baking time since they had been refrigerated. Thanks for posting!
