There are so many things to love about this broccoli cheese stuffed potato skins recipe. For starters, they perfect appetizer for any kind of party! They’re fancy looking enough for a dinner party but hearty enough for having friends over to watch the big game! They remind me of one of my favorite soups, our Potato Broccoli Cheese Soup, but made into delicious finger food! I love that these sneak in a few vitamins and minerals to great party food. Plus, the broccoli fills you up more quickly. Don’t get me wrong, I’m definitely not trying to claim these are low-calorie, just a slightly healthier option.
Broccoli Cheese Potato Skins Ingredients
Only six ingredients will get you these delicious potato skins layered with broccoli and cheese. Don’t be scared of the broccoli. It is the perfect combination.
Russet potatoes – These are thick potatoes that bake well as well as have plenty of inside of the potato to scoop out. Butter – Melt your butter ahead of time. Cheese – Shredded cheese is best to melt. Follow the cheese recipe below for the best way to get that rich, ribbon-looking appearance when drizzling it inside the potato. Broccoli florets – Cut the broccoli and steam or broil the fresh broccoli to soften it. Sour cream – This is a creamy and flavorful ingredient. Red pepper flakes – Add a little spice!
