BAKED JACKET POTATO WITH BAKED BEANS AND CHEESE

• Preheat the oven to 350°F or 180°C.

• Towards the end of the potatoes' cooking time, heat the baked beans in a pan on the stove, until hot.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven, cut into quarters without cutting the whole way through. Squeeze the outside of each quarter to "pucker up" the flesh.
• Pour the desired amount of baked beans over the potato and sprinkle with grated cheddar.
