Alright, this is my first creation, and I'm still learning so go easy on me! It's based on several recipes and whatever I had in my refrigerator.
Ingredients
- 2 large baking potatoes shopping list
- vegetable oil or ranch dressing shopping list
- 1 large carrot shopping list
- 1 or 2 celery stalks shopping list
- 1 tbsp corn starch shopping list
- 2 tbsp butter shopping list
- 1 cup of skim milk shopping list
- 4 slices of cheese (or more!) shopping list
- 1/4 cup of salsa (I use Jack's Special Garden Fresh Gourmet) shopping list
- 5 large leaves of romaine lettuce shopping list
Optional:
- salt & pepper (I use Jane's Krazy Mixed-Up salt) shopping list
How to make it
- Beware that those Prep/Cook times are just estimates because I prep and cook different things simultaneously, so I'm really not sure how long it will take for you. Also, I don't have much in the way of kitchen utensils, so if you do, prep time may be considerably shorter!
- 1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- 2. Wash the potatoes and use a fork to put a few holes in the skin. Coat them in oil or Ranch dressing and bake them for about 45 minutes.
- 3. Meanwhile, steam (or boil) the carrot and celery stalks.
- 4. Chop/shred the lettuce, and then the carrot and celery stalks.
- 5. When the potatoes are done, slice each in half and scoop the insides into a bowl.
- 6. Pour the corn starch, butter, and milk in a small saucepan on medium heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring for 1 minute.
- 7. Add the cheese, and once it has melted, mix in the scooped potato.
- 8. Layer the empty potato skins with lettuce, then the cheesy filling, then the carrot and celery slices.
- 9. Sprinkle on a bit of seasoning and the salsa, and ENJOY!
