Twice-Baked Potatoes With Leeks image

I love the combination of leeks and potatoes, and I love twice-baked potatoes, so this recipe is ideal for me. This is a great presentation, with leeks in the potatoes and garnished with frizzled leeks as well. To make ahead, you can fill the potato skins and chill; then bake for 30 minutes.

These potatoes were a bit too dry for my liking. I think I'll add some more milk or cream next time.

I'm not a big fan of leeks, so I substituted them with onions. The potatoes still turned out delicious.

These potatoes were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

These potatoes were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.
