First I boiled them on the stove top to cook them through enough that I could easily scrape out the insides. So once they were done I cut them in half length wise and put the innards into a zip lock bag.
The inside of the potatoes.
What you have left
Now what you add to the potatoes is up to you. I just used what I had on hand at the time. The sour cream was a great replacement for milk which I normally would have added if making mashed potatoes. The seasoning salt adds a great little hint of flavor that helps bring out the flavor of the cheese and the sour cream.
After adding the ingredients I close up the bag and start mushing it all together. At this point I will have a little taste to make sure I dont need to add anything else. Then snip off one of the ends of the zip lock bag and pipe the mashed up potatoes into the skins.
I made these ahead of time so once dinner came around all I had to do was toss them in the oven. The good thing about these is you can make them in larger amounts and they freeze really well. I like to add a little cheese before baking them one last time. about 10-15 minutes at 350* and they are done. Enjoy!
