Paleo Stuffed Crispy Potato Skins – Yum Yum Yum !
Benefits:

- Perfect finger food: Stuff the Paleo Tender Pork Roast with mashed potatoes, ghee butter and fresh herbs or whatever you like ! It’s crispy …it’s creamy…everything you dream of in one bite !
And because I love this tutorial so much I’m posting it here again –
Perfectly crispy Paleo Stuffed Crispy Potato Skins
I like to slice the potatoes in half first before sending them in the oven – in my opinion, the potatoes cook faster this way.
Use a smaller spoon with a slightly pointy front to scoop out the pulp until only a thin layer of potato remains.
Place skin-side-down (as in the video tutorial) and bake at 420F/ 216C for 10 mins or until the shells are crispy.
Ways to enjoy Stuffed Crispy Potato Skins
I love mixing a few teaspoons of ghee butter with mashed potato and sliced pork cubes and stuffing them back to Crispy Potato Skins but really, you can stuff anything you want.
This dish can be completely vegetarian with chopped avocado, cherry tomatoes, and drizzled with lime juice or with the mashed potato/yam stuffed back into the potato skins after you’ve seasoned it with salt, pepper, and ghee. It will taste creamy, rich, and crispy all in one bite !
