Taco Stuffed Twice Baked Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Scrub and pierce potatoes.
• Bake for one hour, or until fully cooked.
• Remove potatoes from oven and let cool slightly.
• Cut potatoes in half and scoop out potato, being careful not to tear the skins, and place in a large bowl.
• Set skins aside.
• Add butter and salt to potatoes; mash until smooth.
• Add sour cream; mash until combined.
• Add cheese; mash until combined.
• Add one tablespoon of milk; mash.
• If the mixture needs to be more creamy, add more milk, one tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency.
• Add additional salt to taste, if needed.
• Fill empty skins with potato mixture.
• Top each potato with a half slice of cheese.
• Return to oven and reheat until hot.
• *Note*You may also refrigerate them to reheat at a later time, or you can freeze them.
• If you freeze them, delay placing the cheese slices on top until you are ready to bake them. You might want to add more milk to the mix before filling the potatoes because after freezing they seem to reheat a little less creamy.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Wrap the potatoes in foil and bake until cooked through, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes.
• In the meantime, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the meat, about 5 minutes. Drain the liquid from the skillet. Add the black beans, taco seasoning and 1/2 cup water, bring to a simmer and simmer until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven and unwrap carefully. Cut a slit lengthwise down the center and spoon out a bit of the potato from the interior of each. Divide the beef and bean mixture among the potatoes, then top each with 1/4 cup of the shredded cheese. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbling, another 15 minutes.
• Put the potatoes on a platter and top each with some sour cream, salsa, red onions and jalapenos, and garnish with chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• Bake potatoes at 400º for 1 hour 15 minutes.
• While potatoes are cooling (about 15 minutes), cook ground beef until lightly browned.
• Drain beef and return to pan; add taco seasoning and water.
• Simmer for 10 minutes or until slightly thickened.
• Remove a small slice from top of potatoes, removing potato pulp and making sure to leave at least a 1/4-inch shell all the way around.
• In a medium sized bowl, combine the following ingredients: 3/4 cup of cheese, sour cream, margarine, salt and pepper; mix well.
• Divide pulp evenly between potato shells.
• After putting pulp mixture back into shell, make a "nest" to add ground beef mixture evenly between the two.
• Return to oven to bake for another 25 minutes and then divide remaining cheese (at this point, add more cheese if desired) over each potato.
• Bake for another 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Bake potatoes in a 375 degree oven 1 to 1 1/2 hours until done.
• When potatoes are done let them cool 10-15 minutes.
• Then slice them in half lengthwise.
• Using a spoon carefully scoop out the potato, leaving a little on skin so they don't break. Save the skins.
• In a large bowl mix all the ingredients except 1/4 cup cheese, green onion and paprika with a hand mixer until well blended and creamy. If not creamy enough add a bit more milk.
• Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.
• Spoon potato mixture evenly into shells.
• Top with remaining 1/4 cup of cheese and green onions.
• Sprinkle lightly with paprika.
• Return to oven until hot and cheese is melted, about 15-20 minutes.
• Or you can wrap in saran wrap and put in a freezer ziplock bag and freeze for use at another time.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake potatoes in preheated oven for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
• When potatoes are done allow them to cool for 10 minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a large bowl; save skins. To the potato flesh add sour cream, milk, butter, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup cheese and 1/2 the green onions. Mix with a hand mixer until well blended and creamy. Spoon the mixture into the potato skins. Top each with remaining cheese, green onions and bacon.
• Bake for another 15 minutes.
