Interesting jacket potato toppings

[boozeclues]

I WFH and so bored of the same meals every lunch. I am fortunate to have a Tesco local nearby so can pop in for a meal deal, etc etc.

Today went in and got 10 large baking potato’s for £1!!! I batch cooked them in the oven, and now have many jacket potato’s to reheat…

So what’s your fav “interesting” jacket potato topping.

today I had cottage cheese with chives, and tomorrow it’s tuna and cheese. Not very interesting!

Oh I might do this! Sounds delish!

Cheese and beans
Tuna and mayo
chilli con carne
chicken curry
brie, bacon and red onion
brie and cranberry sauce
roast chicken, mayo
smoked salmon strips, butter and cheese
asparagus tips cheese
sapphire and warm butter
sardines in tomato sauce
mackeral and grated cheese

I was wondering about egg mayo as I have craved that today!!!

I discovered the lime pickle on my last venture for an interesting lunch! I did poppadoms and one of those mini trays of India starters 😁😁

I miss the work canteen (we don’t have one anymore) somebody else to plan, cook and wash up daily. Yes please!!!

I did the same yesterday op. Batch cooked four while the oven was on, cooled them and scooped out the flesh which I mixed with tomato and basel flavoured soft cheese and some grated parmesan. I laid the skins in a baking tray filled with the potato mix, topped with grated parmesan and mozzarella, put the tray in a large freezer bag.

They can go straight into the oven from frozen this week as a side dish with rosemary & garlic butter steaks and some steamed asparagus, and as a lunch with a nice green salad. 😋

Make up some packet sage and onion stuffing. Scoop the jacket and mash up with the stuffing and some butter. Refill potato halves and bake through till hot.

Egg mayo is great on a potato!
Thought of some more:
leftover cheese sauce
pesto and grated cheese

I was about to look for a jacket potato thread for inspiration, so thanks OP!

Just read that as ;

Beans with coleslaw

Pulled pork chilli, full of kidney beans. With grated chilli cheese

Glad I am not the only one! I have made the skins super crispy so could do loaded potato skins 🤤🤤

I once improvised a recipe of loaded potato’s skins with Stilton and bacon, with maple syrup drizzled on top. Ooof with a rocket salad, and a jammy boiled egg 🙌 Winner

Coronation chick peas (like Coronation chicken but with chick peas instead of chicken)

Mango chutney & cheese

Dhal

Beetroot, sour cream and chives

Smoked salmon and cream cheese

Ham cheese spring onions butter

Beans with coleslaw

Yess!

People look at me like I have two heads if I eat this. But it's absolutely delicious.

Shredded duck in hoisin sauce

cottage cheese with chopped tomatoes ,prawns and black pepper
leftover spag bol or chilli with cheese
diced cooked chicken breast and mayo, drizzle sweet chilli sauce on top then sprinkle some finely sliced spring onion or snipped chives

Blue cheese and celery

Creamy garlic mushrooms and grated cheese

Poached Egg, Spinach and a bacon rasher!

Or for sweet potato: fry some mushrooms with onion & garlic, add some balsamic vinegar and kidney beans, finish with a dolop of sour cream.or cottage cheese.

Houmous and cheese
Cheese and marmite
Scoop middle out mix with spring onions and cheese and sweet corn , put back in and cook until cheese browns.

I like smoked salmon, crème fraiche and rocket leaves

Blue cheese and crushed walnuts, drizzled with honey ❤️

Thanks everyone, apart from those who suggested hummus.

For some reason I can’t put hummus with carbs, hummus in a sandwich absolutely not! I can actually feel that clacky texture in my mouth (like peanut butter but worse!) - I will make the exception for a well toasted pitta…

Sour cream and lumpfish roe (basically cheaper caviar)

Otherwise sour cream, cheese and bacon bits.

Lots of butter in all cases.

Garlic mushrooms with cream cheese and spinach.
