Baked Stuffed Greek Potatoes
 Baked Stuffed Greek Potatoes Are you looking for a different potato side dish and are tired of the plain old stuffed potato? Maybe you’d enjoy this new take on a stuffed baked potato. It’s full of spinach, sour cream, Greek seasonings and feta cheese. To start off, bake your potatoes until tender. Let them cool a little so you won’t get burned fingers and then take the tops off of the potatoes. Scoop out the potato in large pieces and add everything. Fill the potatoes back up and they are ready whenever you are. You can refrigerate or even freeze at this point, making them a perfect do ahead side dish. Final baking time will depend on if they are frozen or just refrigerated. I’d add an extra 25 – 30 minutes to the baking time if frozen. I usually cook a couple of extra potatoes just because I like the potatoes to be over the top of the skins. If I was doing these Baked Stuffed Greek Potatoes for 4 people I would probably bake 6 of them. It is going to depend on the size of the potatoes you use. For baking potatoes I prefer Russet or Idaho Potatoes.
