When most people think about eating potatoes, the more popular fried, mashed or just chopped up comes to mind. How about trying a new way to eat a potato? Such as an overstuffed Italian potato that will just knock your socks off. Read on to learn how to make stuffed Italian potatoes.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Six potatoes
  • Bell pepper (diced)
  • Red onion (diced)
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Chopped fresh parsley
  • Parmigiana cheese
  • Mozzarella cheese
  • Tin foil
  • Thin baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl
  1. Step 1

    The first step into making these delicious stuffed Italian potatoes is to cook the ground beef, diced onion and pepper all together inside a covered pot. Once cooked, set aside until ready to use.

  2. Step 2

    Get your six large potatoes out. Be sure to wash any remaining dirt off the skin since you will be eating the skin. Cut potatoes into halves, place on a baking sheet, cover in foil and bake on 375 degrees for one hour or until potatoes are fork tender.

  3. Step 3

    Once the potatoes are completely tender, take them out and carefully scoop potato out into a large mixing bowl. Put the potato skins aside.

  4. Step 4

    Now incorporate the potatoes and ground beef together. Mix in some of the Parmigiana and Mozzarella cheese until melted. Get the potatoes skins that you put aside and start stuffing them until all the mixture is gone. You can over stuff them. Sprinkle the chopped parsley, as well as the remainder of both cheeses on top.

  5. Step 5

    Place back onto baking sheet and cook for 30 minutes in a 375 degree oven. Take out and enjoy.

Tips & Warnings
  • Be sure to over stuff the potato, this makes it more presentable and filling.
  • Add other ingredients such as chopped olives, diced pepperoni, or even some ground sausage.
  • When scooping out potato, be careful not to burn yourself.
