Potato Skin Nachos

Author: Kelly the Kitchen Kop (Guest Post recipe From Erin of Eat Real Stay Sane)

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Clean potatoes and rub them in olive oil. Bake at 400° for 1 hour, flipping halfway through.
  • Cut potatoes lengthwise in half and scoop out most of the potato. Save insides for making mashed potatoes another time.  Then cut each potato skin in half width-wise, and then each of those into 3 pieces lengthwise (basically, we just cut it into small triangles so they'd be like nachos).
  • Spread the potatoes on a cookie sheet skin side up and spread melted butter on skins and sprinkle with salt.
  • Set oven to broil and cook until crispy about 3-5 minutes.  Flip skins over and cook until edges begin to darken, another 3-5 minutes.
  • Add desired toppings. Broil until cheese has melted.  Add sour cream and serve immediately.
