Stuffed Baked Potato

This is a an excellent way to serve left over stew or chili!
Bake how many potatoes you think you will need. Let cool.
Cut the top off of the potatoes and scrape out the insides. Set your potato shells aside.  Put the potatoes you scraped out into a bowl, smash, add salt, pepper and butter. Warm up your stew/chili and fiill the emptied potato with your stew or chili. Cover the stew/chili with your potato mixture. 
Top your potatoes with your choice of cheese.
 Bake at 350 degrees until cheese is melted. 
Great with a salad!
