]]>Chili Con Carne
A strong chili con carne with lots of tomatoes, beans, and quality minced beef packs quite a punch on a steaming baked potato. The meal is packed with slow-release carbohydrates, protein, vitamins, and minerals.
Tuna Mayonnaise
Tuna mayonnaise is not quite as filling as chili con carne, but will still leave you full of energy until dinner time. It is full of vitamins and is an excellent source of omega-3.
Baked Beans and Cheese
This combination is a classic for a reason. Not only does the cheese complement the beans in their tomato sauce perfectly, but it is also packed with protein and slow-burn carbohydrates.
Roasted Vegetables and Mushroom
If you’re looking for something a little more plant-based, then you’ve got to try a medley of roast vegetables and mushrooms on a bed of baked potatoes. A good combination is red onions, sweet peppers, garlic cloves, eggplant, and broccoli.

Sautéed Mushrooms
Sautéing mushrooms and adding them on top of a baked potato along with another ingredient like sour cream or onions is a tasty option for this side dish. I recommend sautéing them in balsamic vinegar with herbs and spices to give them a delectable flavor.

If you’re having a Mexican-themed dinner, why not try serving up baked potatoes topped with guacamole? This Mexican favorite is a great idea for topping a baked potato with—especially when you use toppings like shredded cheese as well.
Bacon and Egg
A baked potato for breakfast?! That’s right, as topping this tuber with bacon and a sunny-side up egg or two can be a surprisingly great choice for breakfast. The runny egg yolks and crispiness of the bacon are great complements to the potato.

]]>Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 pounds of russet or Idaho potatoes
- Olive oil
- Flaked sea salt to taste
- Ground black pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375 F and start scrubbing your potatoes very well with a potato scrubber or by hand.
- Using a fork or anything with many spikes, prick holes all over the potato so the steam can escape as you cook it.
- Then, dry them off slightly if necessary, and rub olive oil over the potatoes so the skin glistens.
- Generously season with salt and pepper to your taste, and then put them right on the oven rack without wrapping them in tin foil. You can put a sheet pan or a sheet of tin foil on the rack below to catch drippings if you’re worried.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes or longer until the skin is super crispy and the inside looks really creamy.
- Allow it to cool slightly and enjoy!
