Stuffed Twice Baked Potatoes

My husband is a big fan of twice baked potatoes but they some times take a lot of work when you have other things cooking. I thought up making them into the entree instead of just a side. I added broccoli and chicken and it made a delicious, really simple meal.


3 baking potatoes
2 1/2 c cheddar cheese
2 slices of Kraft singles American cheese
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 crown of broccoli
1/4 c Milk

Preheat oven to 350, place unwrapped potatoes in oven and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Meanwhile, cook chicken in skillet with a little olive oil until cooked all the way through. Cut into chunks. Chop broccoli and steam. When potatoes are done, let cool, then carefully scoop out potato meat leaving the skin, it doesn't have to be completely skin, leave some potato meat in so the skin doesn't rip. Mix potato meat with milk 1 c cheddar cheese and Kraft singles until creamy like mashed potatoes. Add chicken and broccoli. Mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Spoon mixture into potato skins. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of potatoes. Put in oven for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and it's hot. Serve.

Serves: It probably will serve about 4 people, unless they are big eaters then only 3. I was full from one, so it could serve up to 6.
