  1. Preheat the oven to 390F.

Notes

This recipe is perfect for a packed lunch. I don’t even re-heat mine, I think it tastes just as good cold as what it does warm so there is very little fuss needed for a delicious lunch. You can also pack the filling separately to maintain maximum freshness and have extra filling on the side if you don’t want to stuff it all in the potato. Cooking time will depend upon the size of your potatoes, for a medium to large potato I would suggest it would take around an hour to cook. A large potato will be around 1 hour and 10 minutes. When it is cooked you will be able to insert a sharp knife into the flesh easily; you are looking for that classic combination of crispy on the outside but soft and fluffy on the inside.
