Twice-stuffed potatoes are a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with mashed potatoes that are stuffed with a savory filling, then baked until golden brown. This recipe includes three different fillings: bacon and cheese, sausage and gravy, and broccoli and cheese. All three fillings are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Once the potatoes are stuffed, they are baked until the filling is hot and bubbly and the potatoes are tender. Twice-stuffed potatoes are a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes, and they are also a great make-ahead dish. Simply prepare the potatoes and filling ahead of time, then bake them when you are ready to serve.
Here are the recipes for all three fillings:
* **Bacon and Cheese Filling:** This classic filling is made with bacon, cheddar cheese, and green onions.
* **Sausage and Gravy Filling:** This hearty filling is made with sausage, gravy, and mushrooms.
* **Broccoli and Cheese Filling:** This vegetarian filling is made with broccoli, cheddar cheese, and garlic.
No matter which filling you choose, you are sure to enjoy these twice-stuffed potatoes. They are a delicious and satisfying dish that is perfect for any occasion.
CLASSIC STUFFED TWICE BAKED POTATOES
This is my perfect basic recipe for twice baked potatoes. These potatoes are great to make ahead of time. Just refrigerate or freeze until you need them, and reheat in the oven. I prefer sharp cheddar cheese, but you can use whatever you like, but it will change the taste of the recipe. Cook time includes baking the potatoes. Bake a few extra potatoes for extra filling if you like.

MEATLOAF STUFFED TWICE BAKED POTATOES RECIPE - (4.2/5)
Provided by LTIPPETT

Steps:
- Slice the Potatoes lengthwise and bake at 375 as you normally would. Mine only took 35 minutes in my NuWave oven. As the potatoes are baking, prepare your meatloaf mixture. Once the Potatoes are done, core them for twice baked potatoes and set aside for now. Fill the cored potatoes skins with meatloaf mixture and baked them right in the skins. This only took 20 Minutes in my NuWave. As the Meatloaf is baking, prepare your mashed Potatoes as you normally would, but once mashed, put them in a sandwich size ziplock bag. Seal up the bag and then cut a corner out of the bottom so you can press out the potatoes over the meatloaf easier. After the meatloaf was done, remove from oven and add a little meatloaf sauce on top. (I mix mustard, ketchup, and sugar to taste...sweet). Throw back in for 10 minutes. Then put the mashed potatoes on top the meatloaf, added some broccoli and cheddar cheese. I put it back in the oven long enough to melt the cheese. (maybe 10 minutes or less) Another variation of this would be to smother the Potatoes with Mushroom Gravy and/or any other topping that suits your taste.
Tips:
- Choosing the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for twice-stuffed potatoes because they are large, have a fluffy texture, and hold their shape well when baked.
- Baking the potatoes: Prick the potatoes with a fork before baking to help them cook evenly. Bake the potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork, about 1 hour.
- Cooling the potatoes: Let the potatoes cool slightly before handling them. This will help prevent them from breaking apart.
- Scooping out the potato flesh: Use a spoon or melon baller to scoop out the potato flesh, leaving a 1/4-inch thick shell. Be careful not to scoop out too much of the potato flesh, or the potatoes will be too thin and flimsy.
- Preparing the filling: You can use any type of filling you like for twice-stuffed potatoes. Some popular options include mashed potatoes, cheese, bacon, and vegetables.
- Stuffing the potatoes: Spoon the filling into the potato shells, mounding it high. You can also use a piping bag to fill the potatoes.
- Baking the stuffed potatoes: Bake the stuffed potatoes until the filling is heated through and the potatoes are golden brown, about 20 minutes.
- Serving the potatoes: Twice-stuffed potatoes can be served immediately or at room temperature. They can also be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven.
Conclusion:
Twice-stuffed potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or side dish. They are perfect for special occasions or everyday meals. With so many different ways to prepare them, there is sure to be a twice-stuffed potato recipe that everyone will enjoy.
