We all love tacos, and we all love baked potatoes. It's only natural to combine these two favorites to get a dish worthy of a grand "Ole!"
What You'll Need
- 4 large baking potatoes, scrubbed and pierced with a fork
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 (15 ounce) can red kidney beans, undrained
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 tomato, chopped
- 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
What to Do
-
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
-
Place potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet and bake 60 to 90 minutes, or until fork-tender.
-
Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet that has been coated with cooking spray, cook onion over medium-high heat 5 to 6 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned. Add beans and taco seasoning; mix well and continue cooking 2 to 3 minutes, or until heated through.
- Remove potatoes from oven and cut a slit in top of each. Squeeze ends together, forming pockets. Place each potato on a plate and top with bean mixture, lettuce, tomatoes, and sour cream. Serve immediately.
Notes
For faster baked potatoes, you could "bake" them in your microwave, according to the manufacturers' directions.
