Dear Sis,
I made this recipe back in February when we were helping the Jackson Grandparents move, but neglected to post it at the time:) I made it again tonight with Marinated Flank Steak.
- 5 russet potatoes
- 1 sweet potato
- 3 c frozen broccoli florets, thawed and chopped
- 1/2 c sour cream
- 1/2 c salted butter
- 1 1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 lb. uncured turkey bacon, cooked and chopped (optional)
- ground pepper
- Preheat oven to 400. Wash and vent potatoes with a fork. Wrap sweet potato in foil. Place all potatoes in the oven 1 hour to bake.
- Increase oven temperature to 425. Line a baking sheet with foil. Cut potatoes in half. Scoop flesh out with a spoon and place skins on prepared pan. Discard sweet potato skin.
- Mash potatoes with sour cream, butter, and with half of cheese until smooth. Fold in half of broccoli and bacon, if using. Fill potato skins with filling.
- Top with remaining broccoli, cheese, and bacon, if using. Sprinkle with ground pepper.
- Bake potatoes 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted and filling is reheated.
- Do not bake. Place assembled potatoes in foil pans, wrap in foil, and label contents with name date and instructions.
- 1. Thaw the potatoes in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
- 2. Follow baking instructions above, adding more time if not quite heated through. Cover with foil, if cheese begins to brown before heated through.
Love,
b
