Potato skins with sausage and sweet peppers

Ingredients:

• 4 large Russet Burbank potatoes
• Toppings: fried onions, bell peppers and Italian sausage; fresh mozzarella

Preparation:

1. Pierce 4 large Russet Burbank potatoes with a fork. Bake directly on the oven rack at 350°F (175°C) until tender, about 1 hour. Let cool.
2. Cut the skins lengthwise into quarters and scoop out the flesh, leaving 0.5 cm-thick skins. Brush both sides of the skins with melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Bake, skin side up, at 450°F (230°C) until crisp, about 15 minutes. Add your favorite toppings. For cheese skins, flip the baked skins, sprinkle with 1 cup of grated cheddar, and bake for another 5 minutes.
