Easy Twice Baked Potatoes Recipe that will become your favorite side dish!

This Easy Twice Baked Potatoes Recipe is one of my favorite side dish recipes to make!  It’s my favorite because I love potatoes.  When I say I love potatoes I love them all. Mashed, fried, baked, red or sweet it doesn’t matter to me. Potatoes are always a great choice because they can go with almost any meal.

So for this recipe I first “baked” the potatoes in the microwave (feel free to use the oven).  I have this super dandy microwavable pouch I got many moons ago at a local craft fair.  You place the potatoes in the pouch and cook in the microwave for about 8 minutes and you have perfect “baked” potatoes.  After they came out of the microwave I then scooped the flesh out of them and mixed in the cheese and other ingredients with the potato flesh. Next I refilled the skins with the mixture and then placed them in the oven the oven for about ten minutes.

This recipe is great if you are hosting a dinner party.  Your guests will be impressed for sure and it is a very inexpensive side dish.
