Stuffed Baked Potatoes Recipe

Prep: 1 hour + cooling Bake: 30 min.

Yield: 8 Servings

75 30 105

Ingredients

8 baking potatoes (about 3 pounds)
Canola oil
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup minced chives
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/3 to 1/2 cup evaporated milk
Paprika

Directions

Scrub and pierce potatoes. Bake at 375° for 1 hour or until tender. When cool enough to handle, cut a thin slice off the top of each potato and discard. Scoop out the pulp, leaving thin shells.
In a large bowl, mash the pulp with butter. Stir in the chives, salt, pepper and enough milk to obtain desired consistency. Spoon into potato shells; sprinkle with paprika.
Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 20-30 minutes or until heated through. (Potatoes may be stuffed ahead and refrigerated or frozen. Allow additional time for reheating.) Yield: 8 servings.
