How to Make Vegetarian Stuffed Potatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and pierce 4 large russet potatoes several times with a fork. Microwave on high for 5-7 minutes, or until slightly softened.
  3. While potatoes are microwaving, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 medium onion (chopped), 1 bell pepper (chopped), 1 (15-ounce) can of black beans (drained and rinsed), 1 (15-ounce) can of corn (drained), 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have melded.
  5. Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the skin is slightly crispy.
  6. Remove potatoes from oven, let cool slightly, then cut a lengthwise slit in each potato. Gently fluff the inside with a fork.
  7. Spoon the chili mixture evenly over the potatoes.
  8. Top with 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese).
  9. Return to the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream and guacamole (optional).
