recipe for the baked potatoes

I had 4 poatoes, washed and cut in half.   I put it in the microwave for 5 minutes.

I scooped out the insides and put it into a bowl, I then added 1 Tbsp of gucamole, 1 Tbsp sour cream, 1 Tbsp salsa,  1 tsp ms dash seasoning, and mixed it together.  I added shredded cheese to the mixture as well and some cooked ground beef, about 2 Tbsp mixed it with the mixture and potatoes with a fork till it was blended in.

Then I layed out the potatoes on a baking sheet, lightly brushed with some olive oil, then I scooped the mixture back in, added some more shredded cheese on top, and let it melt in the oven on 350′F for 20 minutes-30 minutes.

it goes well with sour cream, and baby spinach as well.

I just got the slow cooker out, then I added some vegetables, chopped onions, chopped bell peppers, chopped carrots, chopped celery, chopped potatoes, green beans, corn, broccoli, cauliflower, 1 can of bean medley (chick peas, kidney beans, black beans, green beans, white pigeon beans), 1 Tbsp olive oil, then I added water. I added 2 vegetable broth cubes from maggi company, and 2 beef ones and 2 chicken ones. all for flavor. i added some garlic ginger paste (you can use that or powder), some herbs like oregano, italian parsley, etc. black pepper, and red chili powder, some salt. add according to your taste.

then i let that cook for awhile. say 3 hours later, then i added some baby spinach to the pot, and stirred it. then added some orzo pasta to it.

say 3 hours later, you can smell the flavors and the soup as it thickens.

You can add some fresh chopped cilantro to it. then add some more baby spinach to it…wait a few mins…5-10 mins…then you can serve it. this goes well with toast, or buns.
