Given I’m celiac, we eat a lot of potato side dishes at our house (see here). To keep things interesting I’m always trying new ways to serve up this versatile vegetable.

Ingredients:

  • 5 medium russet potatoes
  • about ½ c. milk
  • 1 c. grated Parmesan cheese
  • 5 basil leaves
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Pierce scrubbed medium russet potatoes with fork.
  3. Place in 2-quart baking dish and cook for about an hour until the skin is crisp and is easily pierced in the potato.
  4. Let potatoes cool and then scrape the fresh of the potato into a large bowl.
  5. Mash flesh 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, basil, salt, and pepper.
  6. Add milk slowly to ensure desired consistency- you can always add more.
  7. Spoon into potato halves; place in baking dish.
  8. Top with remaining 1/4 cup grated Parmesan.
  9. Bake 15 minutes in 425 degree F oven.

Made these for Magpie's 3 year old nephew. He loved them! They are easy and delish! Grown ups really enjoyed them as well. Glad I made extra!
