Ingredients




Ingredients:
8 medium potatoes
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
1/4 cup finely chopped peppers, any kind
1 large garlic clove, grated
1/2 cup of your favorite cheese
 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter, soft
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
2 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation

1 Directions: 2 Scrub your potatoes well and dry them off. Bake them at 425*F for 45 minutes. Check if they are done by inserting a knife into the potato; if the knife slides in easily the potatoes are done. 3 TIP: You can bake your potatoes in the microwave. Just follow the settings for your microwave. You will save yourself at least half an hour. 4 Pull the potatoes out of the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes, so you can handle them easily. Remove top skin and scoop out potato meat in a bowl and mash them. 5 Add salt, pepper, ground turmeric, garlic, sour cream, cheese, onion, parsley, and peppers then mash to combine. 6 You can stop here and serve the mashed potatoes as a side dish, or you can continue to make the potatoes more uplifting. 7 Spoon the potato mix back into the potato skins, smother the potato skins with olive oil, and place on a baking sheet. 8 Sprinkle some more cheese over the top and bake for 15 minutes in a 425*F preheated oven. 9 Serve in your favorite way and indulge!
