Equipment

  • Bakign sheet

Ingredients

  • 2 cups leftover chili
  • 4 large baking potatoes scrubbed
  • Toppings: sour cream + green onions
  • Serve with: green salad with Parmesan Ranch thinned with buttermilk, raw veggies, bread

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Prick potatoes all over with a fork and place in oven. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until cooked through. Test by inserting the tip or a paring knife or a cake tester into the potato. If it pierces the potato easily, they are cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, warm up the leftover chili and prepare the toppings and sides.
  • When potatoes are baked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Cut them lengthwise through the center, but not all the way through. Ladle ½ cup of the chili into the potato. Top with sour cream and green onions. Serve immediately with a green salad, raw veggies, and bread on the side. 

Notes

  • Sweet potatoes are a great substituted for the baking potatoes.
