A few years ago I made a fancy dinner for us. I haven't done that in a long time. I'm sure Jim is really sad about that. The main course was a rib roast, and these stuffed baked potatoes from Paula Deen were our side dish. They were delicious.Shrimp Stuffed Potatoes
6 large Idaho potatoes
Vegetable oil, for coating
8 tablespoons butter
2 cups grated cheddar cheese, plus more for sprinkling
2 cups grated Monterey Jack
2 cups sour cream
Salt and pepper
1 pound shrimp, peeled and sauteed
Paprika
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Begin by washing potatoes, drying them, and gently pricking them with a fork on the sides. Coat each potato with vegetable oil, place on foil covered pan, and bake for approximately 1 hour.
Place the butter in a large bowl. Remove the potatoes from the oven and slice each potato in half. Gently scoop out the potato and place in the bowl. Using a mixer on high, mix the potatoes, butter, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Fold the shrimp and both cheeses into the mixture. Gently stuff the mixture back into the potato shells, making sure not to break them. Pile the mixture as high as you can on top of the potato shells. Sprinkle each potato with cheese and paprika for color. Bake in the oven for approximately 20 to 30 minutes until browned on top.

Magi, like you, I love to cook. My husband must miss that side of me right now though! This recipe looks FABULOUS. Paula Deen does that real cooking that I feel like I can accomplish. Thanks! If you lived in my town I would love to have you guys over.
