Beef Stuffed Potatoes

Submitted by gailanng

"Sort of tastes like sherpard's pie. Cook the potatoes in the microwave for ultimate ease. Can be doubled or cut down easily. Freezes well and great for OAMC. Time doesn't include initial baking time for potatoes."

These were scrumptious! I only used a 1/2 lb of ground beef as that was all I had on hand and it worked out well. I piled the potatoes high with the stuffing. Thanks so much for sharing.

OH WHAT HEAVEN!!! Made the full batch for DH and I for lunch and froze two of them for later. I did add a little more garlic but otherwise followed the instructions....they are like a sheppards pie! Another totally awesome recipe from you going into my Favorites of 2013. Thank you for posting. Made for Spring PAC 2013.

Yummy potatoes. I only made 2 servings this time but plan to make more to put in the freezer. Thanks GailAnn for another keeper. Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup Tag.

I made these exactly as written and they made a very nice dinner. We did find them a little bland for our taste so the next time I will go heavier on the seasonings, add more garlic and some herbs. I just love the idea of having these in the freezer for quick meals. It's a brilliant idea! Thanks for sharing Gail! Made for the Bistro Babes - ZWT 8

Great way to do dinner! Made as directed and everyone loved it. My own concern, there seemed to be more "stuffing" than would fit in the potatoes. So my son is going to take the leftover "stuffing" for lunch tomorrow! Made for ZWT8, The Wild Bunch.
