Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Bake the Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and scrub the russet potatoes, then pierce each potato several times with a fork. Bake directly on the oven rack for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Broccoli

    While the potatoes are baking, steam the broccoli florets until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Cheese Sauce

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese, stirring until melted and smooth.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Baked Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Slice each potato open and fluff the insides with a fork. Top with steamed broccoli, cheese sauce, and chopped green onions.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve hot and enjoy your Broccoli Cheddar Baked Potatoes!
