What I love about twice baked potatoes is that most of the prep time is spent in the oven. Wash, oil and salt these babies, then throw them in the oven for 30 minutes. Let them cool for a few minutes, dig out the center, mash, mix the put it back in, top and bake again. Then voila….perfect twice baked potatoes!

Quiche and Twice Baked Potatoes are always my go to meals when I don’t have much left in the fridge (and I am trying to avoid the store) or I have a ton of veggies, cheese, and milk that needs to be used up. They are always a hit. Use this recipe for a delicious cheesy tater, or change it up by adding other ingredients. Seriously, you can’t go wrong with a Twice Baked Potato!
