These potatoes are so filling. You can eat them as a side dish or a full meal. Creamy and cheesy, we couldn't get enough of these. Italian dressing mix adds a tangy flavor. The skin crisps up nicely while the middle remains wonderfully creamy. These are seriously delicious.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my potato boats turned out soggy. I think I might have overcooked them.

These potato boats were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.
