Best Baked Potato Ever


I had a craving for baked potatoes last night for tea but also wanted something healthy. Not something layered with sour cream, bacon and cheese. So after searching our cupboards this is what I came up with. It was delicious, and had a fab texture. Best of all we were left full but feeling fresh and healthy.
I have added fish and chicken stock to this recipe but you could easily replace or remove these to make a vegetarian version, and, remove the cheese to create a vegan dish.

Ingredients

Large potatoes
frozen corn
sprouted legumes
splash of chicken stock
anchovies, cut up
cracked black pepper
baby spinach
chia seeds
roast walnuts
avocado
goats cheese/feta/quark
I haven't added amounts to the ingredients - it really just depends on how many people you are going to feed and how hungry you are feeling.

Bake the potatoes whole in a hot oven.
When the potatoes are pretty much cooked heat up a frying pan on the stove. The filling takes less than 5mins to cook.
Place the frozen corn in the pan, let it thaw and allow the pan to become hot again.
Add the legumes, a splash of chicken stock, anchovies and black pepper.
Stir until slightly heated through.
Add the baby spinach. Stir until wilted.
Add the rest of the ingredients, other than the cheese, and stir to combine.
Take the potatoes out of the oven and slice open.
Place the filling on top of the potatoes.
Top with cheese.
Enjoy!
