These Cheesy Broccoli Twice Baked Potatoes are so easy to prepare. They are a family favorite and go well with burgers, sloppy joes, pulled pork, and just about everything else!
Cheesy Broccoli Twice Baked Potatoes
Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes
- 2 cups chopped broccoli,
- ½ cup sour cream
- shredded cheddar cheese
- salt & pepper
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Scrub the potatoes to remove any dirt and dry.
- Pierce potatoes a few times with a fork. Place directly on oven rack and bake until cooked through, about 50 minutes.
- In the last 10 minutes that the potatoes are baking, steam the broccoli--either in the microwave or stove top.
- Carefully remove potatoes and allow to cool slightly so that you can handle them. Keep the oven on.
- Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out the flesh. Place the skins in a shallow baking dish.
- In a large bowl, mash the potatoes and the sour cream. Stir in the steamed broccoli.
- Add salt & pepper to taste.
- Spoon the mixture back into the potatoes.
- Sprinkle liberally with your favorite cheddar cheese.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
My husband just requested twice baked potatoes the other day so this is great timing, thanks!
You’re welcome! Enjoy.
Kristia, one of my favorite lunches I serve is baked potatoes w/ broccoli, I don’t usually do the twice baked w/ the cheese, but thanks for the reminder to mix it up a bit.
My family really likes it when I add Buffalo style chicken.
This seems like a recipe that would be wonderful made ahead of time and then reheated for lunch. Thanks for sharing it! Pinning!
