Mini Stuffed Potatoes

Mini Stuffed Potatoes on a plateThose of you who know me, know that I LOVE magazines…. especially cooking magazines.

A couple weeks ago, one of my Family Circle magazines showed up with this amazing recipe. Since the Super Bowl is right around the corner, I thought I would give this a try to see if it were SB worthy. And boy is it!

As I was stuffing each one, either Darryl or the girls would eat one. I did learn that the gorgonzola was a strong taste for the girls, so I just stuffed theirs less.

Those of you who dislike stinky cheese could easily substitute any cheese in my opinion. Cheddar, monterey jack, pepper jack….. any of those mixed with sour cream and stuffed into a potato would rock my world 🙂 These little guys were so easy to make and get a 5 out of 5 on the yummy meter 🙂
