BROCCOLI CHEESE BAKED POTATOES



Broccoli Cheese Baked Potatoes image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 russet baking potatoes
2 heads broccoli, cut into small florets
Vegetable oil, for frying
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups milk
2 cups shredded Cheddar
2 cups shredded pepper Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Poke a few holes in the potatoes with a fork. Bake until tender, 50 to 60 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and fill a bowl with ice water. Blanch the broccoli by throwing the florets into the boiling water until bright green and still slightly crisp, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Immediately drain the broccoli and plunge it into the bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Remove it from the ice water and set it aside.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, add 1/4 inch of vegetable oil. Add the onions and fry until browned and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain on paper towels and keep warm.
  • In another skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for a minute or 2, but do not let the flour brown. Whisk in the milk and cook until it thickens. Turn the heat to low, stir in the Cheddar and pepper Jack and cook until they are melted. Add the broccoli and cook, stirring, until the broccoli is warmed through.
  • Make a slit down the length of each potato using a fork. Push in the ends to open up the potatoes and break up some of the potato inside. Pour a ladle of the cheese sauce over each potato. Garnish with the crispy onions and serve while hot.

BROCCOLI STUFFED TWICE-BAKED POTATO



Broccoli Stuffed Twice-Baked Potato image

Awesome recipe from my NEW favorite cookbook, Student's GO VEGAN Cookbook. Non-vegans, feel free to add some grated sharp cheddar or parmesan to the filling before you re-stuff the potato skin. This recipe serves one, but can easily be doubled or tripled. And, feel free to microwave the potatoes if you are short on time.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for baked potatoes because they are large and have a fluffy texture. If you don't have Russet potatoes, you can use another type of potato, but the baking time may vary.
  • Prick the potatoes: Before baking the potatoes, prick them with a fork to help them cook evenly. This will also help to prevent the potatoes from exploding in the oven.
  • Bake the potatoes until they are tender: The baking time will vary depending on the size of the potatoes. To check if the potatoes are done, insert a fork into the center of the potato. If the fork goes in and out easily, the potato is done.
  • Stuff the potatoes while they are still hot: This will help the filling to melt and blend with the potatoes.
  • Top the potatoes with cheese: Cheese is a classic topping for baked potatoes, and it pairs perfectly with the broccoli and cheddar filling.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: Baked potatoes are best served hot, so enjoy them right out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Broccoli stuffed baked potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make meal. They are perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both satisfying and nutritious. So next time you are looking for a new way to enjoy potatoes, give broccoli stuffed baked potatoes a try. You won't be disappointed!
