Loaded Baked Potatoes: Be creative with what you put on top! Try loading your baked potato with all the traditional fixings like grated cheese, bacon bits, sour cream and chopped chives; or add things like diced avocado, salsa or even BBQ pulled pork for a heartier twist.
Herb-Flecked Potatoes: Take your baked potatoes to new heights by mixing herbs and spices with olive oil or butter rub. Get creative with flavors like garlic, thyme, rosemary or smoked paprika for a potato that is invitingly scented.
Vegetarian or Vegan Toppings: For individuals who are vegetarian or vegan, they can avoid dairy-based toppings such as sour cream and cheese. Instead, choose alternatives such as vegan sour cream and cashew cheese to be used in place of the dairy products. Moreover, you can top your potatoes with plant-based protein like seasoned grilled veggies, tofu scramble ort black beans.
Potato Mashed: Make your baked potatoes into mashed potato stuffed ones using this hack. Once cooked through, cut the potatoes open and scoop out their fluffy insides. Take the potato flesh and put it into a bowl along with butter, milk, garlic or cheese according to your preference for mash-ins. The mixture should then be filled back into its corresponding skins followed by additional cheese on top before being baked until it becomes golden brown and bubbly.
The Hot Stuff: Immolate some fire in your baked potatoes by sprinkling them with chili powder, cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper flakes before baking them. Alternatively one may choose to add jalapeno slices or spicy salsa on top of them if want an extra hotness
