Baked Potatoes

Ahhhh, who doesn't love a good baked potato? Load it up with your favorite toppings and yummmm. Butter, cheese, bacon, ham, sour cream, ranch, chili, salt and pepper. Just to name a few. I enjoy mine with a crispy outside. Have you guys ever opened up a potato after it cooked in foil, and it's just soggy and kinda gross? Here is something you can try to make them nice and crispy on the outside and soft in the middle.

Preheat oven to 425. Line the bottom rack of your oven with foil. Wash and dry your Potato, next poke some holes in it. Not too big, use a fork or knife. Rub some olive oil and salt over the outside of the potatoes. Place the potatoes on the top rack. Any oil that drips off will fall onto the foil below. Cook for about 60-90 mins depending on the size of potato.  Squeeze it with a  hot pad, if it feels soft then its done. Add your favorite toppings and Enjoy!
