I enjoyed this for lunch today. Super easy and yummy. I think I hollowed my potatoes out a bit too much, or stuffed in too much spinach mixture, because I found myself wanting more potato taste....no problem, just added some of the reserved potato to the side and enjoyed immensely! I did hollow them out to 1/4 inch, but think they may have been smaller than suggested. Great lunch! Thanks for sharing. Made for Newest Tag game.
