List of Ingredients




4 Large Russet Potatoes -- Scrubbed
1 Medium Onion -- Chopped
1 Teaspoon Olive Oil
4 Cloves Garlic -- Minced
2 Tablespoons Sunflower Seeds
1 Cup Mushrooms -- Sliced
2 Cups Broccoli Florets
2 Teaspoons Salt
1/2 Teaspoon Black Pepper
1/4 Cup Fresh Basil -- Chopped
1/4 Cup Scallions -- Chopped
1 Teaspoon Paprika


Recipe



1. Preheat oven to 350F.

2. Prick each potato with a fork a few times and bake for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until soft.

3. While potatoes are baking, saute onions in olive oil until translucent. Add garlic, sunflower seeds, and mushrooms and saute 5 minutes. Add broccoli, cover and steam 1 minute.

4. When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut in half lengthwise and scoop out inner flesh, leaving skins as "boats" to be stuffed.

5. Bring oven back up to 350F.

6. In a large mixing bowl, mash potatoes with a fork. Add sauteed vegetables, salt, pepper, and basil. Mix well and adjust seasonings to taste.

7. Spoon filling into potato skins, and pack firmly to form a rounded top.
