Baked potatoes are ideal side dishes for a crowd. You can prep them early, get them in the oven, then set up a buffet of toppings for guests to choose from. For these broccoli-topped spuds, you may want to offer a bowl of sour cream.
Even before I put them in the oven, I knew this was a five star recipe. Well-written, easy and filling. I used less onion than called for, although I am sure it would have been even better with more onion. As long as the onion is cooked for ten minutes, it shouldn't overwhelm the potatoes. I had leftover filling because I halved the recipe and only made three. I had enough for 4 though. My husband and I ate the leftover filling, so we couldn't wait to eat the baked potatoes. I cooked them for about 35 minutes till they reached an internal temperature of 178 degrees. They were very hot; we waited until after our salad to start eating them. Yummy and an easy dinner
One LARGE onion and FOUR cloves of garlic.....? Oh I knew this couldn't be right, especially when I seem only 2 cups shredded cheese was used. Soooo..... I had to test this myself, and my predictions were right. One large onion is absolutely overkill! Try one small or half of an onion here, LOLOL! More cheese helps, Velveeta is better! Top with crisped bacon pieces and sliced green onion tops..... For an even better taste!
This is the second time I'm making these. They r very good.last time I had left over filling so I got so e bell peppers and stuffed them with it they were yummy to......just an idea if you run into the same issue.....
