So, this week I stopped at my neighborhood Winn Dixie to check out all the deals in the flyer.  I have to say I LOVE Winn Dixie.  They have the best discounts, and BOGO deals, and the more I spend there the more points I rack up that are converted into cash for my next grocery trip. #winningwithwinndixie

If you’re interested in this fantastic baked potato recipe allow me to share my secrets with you…

How to bake a potato?

Baked potatoes are pretty simple, and here is a formula to follow to make them perfect.

First, start by preheating the oven to 400°F.

Scrub the potatoes and cut off any dark spots or blemishes.

Use a fork and pierce the potatoes in several spots on all sides.  

Rub each potato with a light coat of oil and sprinkle with salt. 

And place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, or directly on the oven grates with a baking sheet underneath to catch any excess liquid that drips out.

How long to bake a potato?

Bake the potatoes for 1 hour or until tender.  Let them stand until cool enough to handle.

They are soft and fluffy on the inside and the skin is crispy and delicious enough to eat. 

Is potato skin good for you?

AND bonus there are tons of healthy nutrients in the potato skins.  The skins are loaded with disease-fighting nutrients and weight-friendly fiber.  By incorporating potato skins into your diet, you’ll get even more healthiness from each potato.

I have to say this is a foolproof baked potato method that works every time!

How to make Spinach Artichoke Potatoes?

Follow the steps above (or the instructions in the recipes card) for oven baked potatoes.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.  Add the onion and cook until soft, 5-6 minutes.  Then, add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

Garlic and onions sautéed in a non-stick pan.

Next, stir in the spinach, thyme, artichokes, and chicken stock. 

Spinach, artichokes and chicken stock added to the saute pan with garlic and onions.

Cut the potatoes in half and scoop the insides into a bowl.  Place the skins on a large baking sheet.
