Description

Loaded twice-baked potatoes stuffed with turkey, stuffing, cheese, and gravy are a creative way to use up those Thanksgiving leftovers.

Ingredients

4 large baking potatoes
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup leftover gravy
1/2 cup cream cheese
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 1/4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
1 cup chopped cooked turkey
1 cup chopped leftover stuffing
2 green onions, thinly sliced

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2 Place potatoes on a baking sheet; rub with canola oil.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
4 Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Scrape flesh into the bowl of a stand mixer, being careful not to tear skin. Leave a small rim of flesh in skin intact. Place hollowed-out potato skins back on the baking sheet.
5 Beat together melted butter, gravy, cream cheese, salt, and pepper into potato flesh in the mixer on low speed until well combined. Add 1 cup Cheddar cheese; mix for a few seconds. Remove the bowl from the stand mixer; fold in turkey, stuffing, and green onions using a spatula.
6 Fill potato skins with turkey mixture. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup Cheddar cheese on top.
7 Bake in the preheated oven until warmed through, about 15 minutes.
