Yummy. This is a nice way to do baked potatoes. I liked the creaminess of the cream cheese and the flavor of the garlic salt. My "shells" (skins) started to rip apart somewhat so I couldn't really fill them up like I would have liked to. I kinda just piled all the filling on top of the flattened skins. Still super tasty though! One of these paired with a salad and I had a delicious and simple meal. Thanks for posting. Made for photo tag.

I have a double major honors degree in sociology and politics and am slowly working my way through a Masters.
I am a wanabee writer but until that dream becomes a reality I work in internet marketing where I build websites for profit. So, it is nice to come to a site like this and just enjoy being on the internet rather than using it as a work environment.
I am a BBW (big woman) but over the past two years I have lost over 80lbs and am working my way down the scales slowly but steadily.
These days, I am trying to eat a lot less meat. So, I am trying to have as many vegetarian recipes in the week as I can manage. I have started a blog - <a href="http://weekendcarnivore.com/">Weekend Carnivore</a> where I blog about trying to eat a mostly vegetarian diet. I share a lot of my discovered recipes there. If I make one of your vegetarian recipes and I managed to take a good photo of it, chances are I will blog about it and tell everybody how much I enjoyed it.
