Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the potatoes for approximately 45 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Once done, allow them to cool slightly before handling.

  2. Scoop and Mix: Carefully cut each potato in half lengthwise, and scoop the flesh into a small mixing bowl, making sure to reserve the skins for the next step.

  3. Blend Ingredients: To the scooped potato, add the cheese, skim milk, salt, and pepper. Beat the mixture until it becomes fluffy, adjusting the consistency with additional milk if needed.

  4. Incorporate Veggies: Fold in the grated carrots and chopped green onions, ensuring an even distribution throughout the mixture.

  5. Fill and Bake: Spoon the potato mixture back into the reserved potato shells. Place the filled boats on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for an additional 15 minutes, or until they are heated through and lightly golden on top.

Enjoy your Carrot Potato Boats as a wholesome side dish or a delightful main course!
