Some times it’s the simplest things that are the best. What can beat a baked potato with butter, salt and pepper? Adding cheese and sour cream is a great treat. How about some crumbled bacon? Or that tiny amount of leftover chili? Or even better, some jalapeño cheese dip!
There are just SO many ways to enjoy a baked potato!
Using the pressure cooker to bake potatoes is quick, easy, and makes for light and fluffy insides. After scrubbing the potatoes and poking them with a knife, just put them into a steamer basket above a cup or so of water. I like to throw in some garlic cloves, still in their jackets. The garlic steams into a soft and gooey glob that can be squeezed into the potato for an extra treat.
