I practically jumped up and down when I found out that our next theme for our Recipe of the Week blog was vitamin C packed potatoes! Not only are potatoes full of nutrients, but they are cheap, tasty, and you can make so many different kinds of recipes with them! I’ve been wanting to make stuffed potatoes for quite some time, and I’m so happy I got the chance to share these with you. We’ll be bringing you even more potato recipes this month, so go ahead and stock up on the taters!
Bake the potatoes in the oven (or microwave them if you’re feeling lazy—I bet there’s even a potato button on your microwave!).
When potatoes are cooked through, let them sit a couple minutes until they are cool enough to handle. Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out the middles. Mash the scooped out middles with BBQ sauce (about 2 tablespoons per half depending on the size of the taters). Add pineapple, green onions, veggies, and sea salt to taste. Fill the potato halves with the mixture—don’t be afraid to make them heaping!
I topped mine with green onions and a drizzle of BBQ sauce to make ‘em pretty.
I had fun making these, and I hope you do, too! Let us know what you think by commenting below.

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Jersey girl now I'm all country.
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)
