How to make it

  • Bake potatoes by your preferred method of baking potatoes then let them cool until you can handle them.
  • Cut a slice from the top of each potato.
  • On your slices, carefully carefully peel off the skin and discard. Place the pototo slices in a bowl.
  • Use a spoon to carefully scoop the potato out of the inside of your baked potatoes, just leaving a thin shell of potato and peel.
  • Add the potato you scoop out to the potato slices in the bowl and set aside your potato shells.
  • Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes in the bowl with the butter and just enough milk to make a stiff consistency.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Drain the mushrooms and carefully stir them into the mashed potato mixture, wihtout breaking up the mushrooms.
  • Divide the mashed potato mixture into four portions and fill the potato shells with it.
  • Place your filled potatoes in an 11x7 baking dish.
  • Bake at 425 for 20 minutes or so, until potato filling is lightly browned.
  • Slice each cheese slice in half diagonally. Place one cheese triangle on top of each filled potato.
  • Sprinkle with paprika and return to oven for 2 or 3 minutes, just long enough to melt the cheese.
  • Serve immediately.

    This is a great recipe! What's not to love?? I see me using some shredded colby jack cheese. (I'd put that in my cereal if I could - lol). Thanks for sharing.
