Brent apparently has this love for potato skins that I never realized before. So, I hopped onto allrecipes.com and found one with a 5-star ranking by lots & lots of people. I really like it because you coat the skins with a garlic/Parmesan cheese marinade-thing. Very very yummy. And, with the leftover potato-insides, you can make funeral potatoes or hash browns. There ya go!
INGREDIENTS
* 4 large baking potatoes, baked
* 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
* 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
* 1/4 teaspoon paprika
* 1/8 teaspoon pepper
* 8 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
* 1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
* 1/2 cup sour cream
* 4 green onions, sliced
DIRECTIONS
1. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise; scoop out pulp, leaving a 1/4-in. shell (save pulp for another use). Place potatoes skins on a greased baking sheet. Combine oil, Parmesan cheese, salt, garlic powder, paprika and pepper; brush over both sides of skins. Bake at 475 degrees F for 7 minutes; turn. Bake until crisp, about 7 minutes more. Sprinkle bacon and cheddar cheese inside skins. Bake 2 minutes longer or until the cheese is melted. Top with sour cream and onions. Serve immediately.

These sound great. Too bad the super bowl is over. Josh loves potato skins as well and I have never made them for him. I might have to give it a go!
This does sound like a good game time snack. I've never even considered making potato skins but I'll have to try these! DJ is a potato-holic so I'm always looking for new potato recipes!
I had an epiphany with this recipe. you know how you scoop out the baked potatoes to make them? Well, use the scooped out part to make baked potato soup. Woo hoo!
