2 large russet potatoes , extra-large, baked, cut lengthwise and insides removed
2 cups prepared instant mashed potatoes
3/4 cup italian cheese blend , packaged in deli
1/2 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/4 cup green onion , chopped, green and white parts
Directions
Thouroughly wash large russets and bake at 450 degrees for 50-60 minutes.
Remove from oven. When cool enough to handle, cut in half lengthwise and scrape out potato, leavine a scant 1/8 inch of potato on skin.
If your potato is baked perfectly, feel free to use it, rather than using the potato buds. You will need to add some milk and butter to make the right consistancy.
If using the Potato Buds, prepare according to package directions, but make them a bit thicker by adding an extra 1/4 cup of buds when told to add the buds. You have to do this to compensate for the sour cream which can make your potatoes too thin.
Add all remaining ingredients to your potato and mix well.
Place the 4 halves of potato skin under broiler and broil until very crisp, watch closely to avoid burning. You can lower the rack to keep from burning.
Tear or cut the crisp potato skins into "chips".
Place the "potato mash" on plate, garnish with some chives and serve the "chips" to scoup up the potato. I actually stuck the skin chips into the mash at odd angles, it looked kinda cool.
*****This is one of the oddest things I have ever dreamed up, but it is good.
