- 4 medium russet potatoes, scrubbed clean
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 cup cooked ground beef or turkey (or black beans for a vegetarian option)
- 1 cup corn (canned or frozen)
- 1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup diced tomatoes (fresh or canned)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Lime wedges, for serving
- Preheat your oven to 425°F. Poke holes in the potatoes with a fork, rub with olive oil and salt, and roast for 45-60 minutes until tender.
- In a skillet over medium heat, brown the meat (or heat beans). Add corn and tomatoes.
- Season the mixture with cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5-7 minutes.
- Slice the baked potatoes down the middle and fluff the insides with a fork; season with salt and pepper.
- Spoon the filling into the potatoes and top with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Garnish with sour cream, diced avocado, fresh cilantro, and serve with lime wedges.
Notes
- For a crispier skin, bake the potatoes directly on the oven rack.
- To make it vegetarian, substitute the meat with extra black beans or a plant-based crumble.
- Leftover filling can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and used for tacos or salads.
