Forgotten Favorites: Baked Potatoes

Sometimes I spend so much time trying to come up with creative meals that I forget about some classic (& quick) meals. Recently I rediscovered Baked Potatoes, how did I forget about these delicious spuds?
Another great thing about baked potatoes is they are quick!

The Deets
2 Baked Potatoes
4 Strips cooked Bacon Crumbled
1/2 Cup Shredded Cheese
Sour Cream
Butter

The How To
Pierce Potatoes and rub with Butter
Microwave for 6-7 minutes (most microwaves have a potato button that works perfectly)
Potatoes will be hot hot hot - cut with care
Top with your favorite toppings
Whether you like a little or a lot of toppings is up to you
Add a nice Salad and Dinner is served!

Plate, Pray & Enjoy!

A Baked Potato potluck is fun for St. Patrick's day.

Have people sign up for different toppings-salsa, cheese, broccoli, bacon, sour cream, etc.

Usually it is kind of cool out on St. Patrick's day so a warm spud is still welcome. Nobody had to work too hard to bring something and nothing cost too much- even the spuds.
