Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
I love potatoes. It's the sort of love that pulls me to taters of all form, and employs a devil that sits on my shoulder and convinces me to have second servings -- fried, smashed, baked, you name it.
It should be no surprise then, that I was quickly pulled to the farmers' market potato table last week, which boasted a ton of different types of potatoes, and picked the biggest one. The big beast above had to be mine. But what do you do with something that big? It seemed a travesty to cut the potato up into chunks when it was such a fun shape, so there was only one thing to do -- make a meal out of a twice-baked potato.
If you're also a potato fiend and want to make a meal out of your gigantic tater, here's what you do: First, cook your potato. Me, I like to nuke it first quickly, then bake it to get the outside firm. Then, I scooped out the middle, seasoned the inside with salt, pepper, and butter, and then got to work on the bowl of potatoes. Once they were mashed, and a few spoonfuls eaten, a lot of chopped brussels sprouts and fried wild boar bacon were mixed in with some garlic powder. It was all spooned back into the potato, topped with sharp cheese, and baked a little while longer.
The brussels sprouts made it healthy ... right?
