Here's what I normally do. I don't ever measure anything so this is approximate. I usually make 4 potatoes (8 twice baked potatoes) Remove the insides of the baked potatoes Mash the potato with butter (1/4 stick) salt and pepper Add: Sour Cream (about a cup) Can of Cream of Mushroom soup or Cream of Broccoli This keeps the potato mixture from drying out. You might want to use 1/2 of each. The cream of broccoli soup is a bit on the green side ... Sliced fresh mushrooms (6 oz package) I used canned one time because there were no fresh mushrooms available. They seemed to be a bit too salty and slimy. Shredded Cheese (1/2 cup cheddar and 1/2 cup swiss) After mixing well, fill the potato skins and reheat in the oven at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes. You can also zap them in the microwave for about 3 minutes. In addition, you can add any of the following to the potato mixture - green onions, cooked broccoli, and parmesan cheese. Good Luck, Melody hancock@aerospace.aero.org
