Twice Baked Potatoes are really just like a loaded potato from a potato bar. Thus, I believe they are hardy in and of themselves to be a meal. Just pair them with a green salad and dinner is served. After my husband delved into one of these spuds he turned to me and said, "that was the best potato you have ever made!" Spoken like a true meat and potato lover.
8 medium potatoes
1/2 sour cream
1/4 to 1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon cream
1/4 cup green onions, chopped

3. Reserve both sides of skin. Place potato inside a bowl.
