Great lunch for the DM and I which we thoroughly enjoyed. I used about 150 g of my recipe of recipe #226233 which meant it wasn't vegetarian as it has bacon in it. I used 2 large potatoes which I microwaved for 8 minutes (making it super quick), also I didn't mash up the bit I cut off but put it on the top to one side to form a cap which went nice and crispy. Thank you Lalaloula for a great lunch, made for Went to Market. UPDATE - made this again this afternoon for lunch for myself and used commercial baked beans which I spiced up with some hot chilli sauce and served with a simple tomatoe and cucumber salad. Thanks once again Lalaloula.

This jazzed up spud was dinner last evening all by it's self. Things got a little busy around here around dinner time and I didn't even bother to mash them, just mixed everything, the potato meat was so well cooked that it broke down on it's own while stirring the mix together. Very tasty and filling! I must confess to cheating a bit when it came time for the cheese I just microwaved it to melt. I absolutely make this again and next time I'll mash the bean filling and then bake it off.
