How to Make Avo Ranch Twice Baked Spuds

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
  2. Prick 4 medium russet potatoes several times with a fork. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
  3. Remove potatoes from oven and let cool slightly.
  4. Cut a lengthwise slit in the top of each potato and scoop out the flesh, leaving about 1/4-inch border to hold the filling. Set aside the scooped potato flesh and discard the potato skins.
  5. In a medium bowl, mash the potato flesh with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
  6. Add 4 tablespoons of butter to the mashed potatoes and mix well.
  7. Add 1 ripe avocado, mashed, and 1/2 cup of your favorite ranch dressing to the mashed potatoes. Stir until thoroughly combined.
  8. Spoon the mixture back into the potato skins, mounding slightly.
  9. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese) over each potato.
  10. Return potatoes to the oven and bake for 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
