Twice Baked Rosemary And Cheese Potatoes Food

CHEESY ROSEMARY TWICE BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Puncture potatoes with a fork about 6 times around the potato, this will allow steam to escape while they are cooking. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the skins are crispy but the potato is soft. You should be able to insert a fork and remove it easily. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees.
• Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise (Note: be careful they will retain a lot of the heat for awhile). Being careful not to puncture the skin, spoon out the insides, place them in a mixing bowl and set the skins aside.
• To potatoes ad butter and milk. Mash. Then fold in 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese and rosemary. Carefully spoon mash back into potato skins. Top with remaining mozzarella. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes or until cheese is melted. Turn on the broiler and broil for 2 - 3 minutes or until the cheese on top starts to brown. Serve immediately

TWICE BAKED ROSEMARY AND CHEESE POTATOES

Steps:

• Place the potatoes and garlic cloves in a large pot. Fill the pot with water until it's at least 2" over the top of the potatoes. Cover, and heat over medium high heat until it comes to a boil. Remove the lid, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, drain, and place the potatoes in a large bowl.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or ricer until they reach the desired consistency. Add ½ cup of the cheese, the Greek yogurt, ½ cup of the milk, the butter, 1 tablespoon of the salt, and pepper, and stir until combined. You may use the masher to combine the ingredients, but just make sure you don't over-mash or the potatoes may become gluey. Add as much of the remaining milk as desired and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.
• Grease an 9x13" baking dish with cooking spray and add the potatoes. Top with the remaining cheese and bake until warmed through and the cheese has melted, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
