What fun. When our daughter was a child I used to hollow out baked potatoes and add all sorts of vegetables to the pulp, put it all back, and top with cheese for her. That was a favorite. This is similar and must be delicious.


My silly daughter can not stand twice baked potatoes the boring way, now, this would be right up her alley. She has good taste and so do you, these will be a great addition to the dinner table. Nice post.


Yes, it definitely helps to get the kids to eat their veggies! Most kids will eat baked potatoes, especially with the fun stuff like butter, cheese, and bacon - it's pretty easy to sneak the veggies in here. ;-) When my son was a child, this was the only way I could get most veggies into him, lol.
