Potato Skin Cheeseburger

I basically cut a potato in half and made this. It’s actually really freaking good. This is also really inexpensive to make. I wouldn’t eat this alone though… What would be the point?

Instructions

Things you'll need
HJF Cutting BoardHJF Apron
  1. Prepare Potatoes

  2. Wash & Stab Potatoes with a fork

  3. Microwave your potatoes.

  4. Medium Potatoes: 10-12 minutes on High

  5. Large Potatoes: 18-20 minutes on High

  6. While the Potatoes are in the microwave, preheat your oven to 475°F

  7. Cut a sliver of the top and bottom side of the potatoes to create your bun

  8. Place onto a baking pan, season with some salt & pepper, brush them down with Olive Oil and bake for 20 minutes or until they are golden and crispy

  9. Shape Your Meat & Prep Your Ingredients

    When pressing your own burger patty, shape it so that it fits the profile of your potato bun. Remember that your burger will shrink up while it's cooking and to maintain consistent thickness throughout.

  10. During this time you can be cooking your Turkey Bacon, Chopping up chives, and mashing up

  11. Mashed Potatoes

    Take the remaining inside of the potatoes (skins on if you'd like) and they should be soft enough to start mashing in a pot.

  12. As you mash your potatoes, add ingredients like Skim Milk, Greek Yogurt, Cream Cheese, Garlic, etc. until they reach the taste you desire.
