| I know you can't really tell what this is just from the picture. It looks like a big pile of....stuff. And thats exactly what it is, a big pile of stuff on top of a hot, round, creamy yukon gold potato. Mmmm.. This was actually Adam's idea. He used to eat baked potatoes with these toppings when he lived in New Orleans. I trust his taste, and to be honest it sounded so amazing that I couldn't resist — melted cheddar, cool sour cream, soft caramelized onions, and sauteed woody mushrooms. Whoa. |
Oh my, you know what would make this the ultimate baked potato? A fried egg on top. Ok, I need to stop now.
Loaded Baked Potato
1 yellow onion, sliced
8oz mushrooms, I used button
1 yukon potato, Idaho is fine too
Shredded cheddar cheese
Sour cream
1 Slice onion and saute over medium heat until light brown in color. Season and set aside.
2 Prick potato with fork all over, wrap in a paper towel and heat in microwave for 6 minutes depending on size of potato.
3 While the potato is in the microwave, in the same pan, saute the mushrooms, season and set aside.
4 The potato should be ready at about the same time as the mushrooms.
5 Now its time to assemble the loaded baked potato. You can do it any way you please. We split open the potato, covered it with cheddar, dolloped with sour cream, next the caramelized onions, mushrooms, more cheese and if you're like me, a couple of snippets of green onions just for some color.

LOVE potato & mushroom combo! In Russia we used to just put sauteed mushrooms and onions on top of boiled potatoes and drizzle with sunflower oil.
Those look incredible... And seriously, who doesn't love potatoes? For me though, I pile them high with caramelized onions. Mmm!
