Main Ingredients

  • 4 large Russet potatoes
  • 1 cup Black beans rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup Corn kernels fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup Cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 teaspoon Chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon Green onions chopped
  • 0.25 cup Cilantro chopped

Instructions 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and dry the potatoes. Rub them with olive oil and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until tender.
  3. While the potatoes are baking, mix black beans, corn, cheddar cheese, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  4. Once the potatoes are done, let them cool slightly. Cut them in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, leaving a small border of potato.
  5. Mix the scooped-out potato with the bean and corn mixture. Spoon the mixture back into the potato skins.
  6. Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted.
  7. Garnish with green onions and cilantro before serving.
