instructions:

How to cook Twice Baked Potato Recipes

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees or broil on HI until cheese melts 
2. Note: these can also be air fried on aluminum foil until heated for 5 to 8 minutes. 
3. Directions for all recipes: 
4. Microwave the potatoes, you can do them in a convection oven, regular baked in conventional ovens, make them in a slow cooker or boil them until they are cooked leaving them whole. Cool, slice lengthwise in half. 
5. Scoop the potato of each one carefully with a teaspoon and place it in a medium-sized bowl. 
6. Whip the potatoes with a hand beater or you can mash them with a fork and leave them chunky. 
7. Add any of the ingredients for the recipe you choose reserving some of the shredded cheese for the tops. 
8. Place in a casserole dish or baking sheet for the broiling, baking in the oven,  or on foil for air fryers. 
9. Sprinkle each potato with any kinds of cheese slices or shredded cheese on top, dried parsley, more grated cheese if desired, (I use slices for the provolone twice-baked potatoes). 
10. During the holiday, I sprinkle them with paprika and parsley for a holiday-themed look. 
11. Place the potatoes in the preheated oven at 400 degrees and bake until the cheese melts or you can broil until the top of the cheese browns. 
12. All recipes can be adapted for toppings and additions as suggested. 
13. These potatoes are great reheated in an air fryer if you have any leftovers.
