   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
   • Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for approximately 45 minutes or until they are soft and tender.

2. Prepare Potato Boats:

   • Once the potatoes are cooked, slice them in half lengthwise.
   • Scoop out the inner flesh, leaving about 0.125 inches of potato attached to the skin. These hollowed-out potatoes are your “boats.”

3. Prepare Chicken Filling:

   • In a medium bowl, mix the boneless, skinless chicken breasts with 1/2 cup of barbecue sauce until the chicken is generously coated.
   • Fill each potato boat with the barbecue-coated chicken.

4. Prepare Mushroom Filling:

   • Repeat the process with the fresh mushrooms, tossing them in 1/4 cup of barbecue sauce until coated.
   • Fill the remaining potato boats with the barbecue-coated mushrooms.

5. Bake:

   • Pour any remaining barbecue sauce over the filled potato boats.
   • Place the boats in a 200°F (93°C) oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the mushrooms are cooked through, and the sauce has reached your desired thickness.

6. Cheese Topping:

   • Once baked, sprinkle cheddar cheese over the tops of the potato boats.
   • Return them to the oven and bake just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

7. Serve and Enjoy!

   • Serve the Tato Boats hot, straight from the oven.
   • Feel free to customize your toppings according to your preferences.
   • Enjoy the delicious blend of flavors and textures in every bite!

Serving Suggestions:

• These Tato Boats are delicious as is, but feel free to customize them to suit your taste preferences.
