Grilled Vegetable Potato Skins Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill over medium-high heat.
• Peel each potato and cut ends off, (so they are flat on both sides), then cut in half across the center. Scoop out 1/2-inch of the potato's center to form a crater. Wrap a piece of bacon around each chunk of potato and secure with toothpicks to keep the bacon in place.
• Put the potatoes on the grill, cut side down, until the bacon is cooked. Flip once to get color on each side. Cover with foil to create a tent and turn heat down to medium to "steam" the potatoes. Put the asparagus on the grill and coat with BBQ sauce. Remove the foil from the potatoes, add the cheese to the crevice and cook until melted.
• Arrange a potato in center of each plate and remove the toothpicks. Stick 3 to 4 pieces of asparagus in the cheese crevice so the asparagus is standing upright. Garnish with sour cream and serve.
• Eat and enjoy.

Steps:

• Pierce potatoes several times with a fork and place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high for 15-20 minutes or until tender, rotating the potatoes once. Let stand until cool enough to handle.
• Meanwhile, in a large resealable plastic bag, combine the summer squash, zucchini, peppers and onion. Pour salad dressing over vegetables. Seal bag and turn to coat; marinate for 20 minutes.
• Cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scoop out pulp, leaving a thin shell (save pulp for another use). Brush inside of shells with oil and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
• Coat grill rack with nonstick cooking spray. Place potato shells skin side up on grill rack. Grill, covered, over indirect medium heat for 10 minutes or until golden brown.
• Drain vegetables, reserving marinade. Grill vegetables in a grill basket, uncovered, over medium heat for 10 minutes or until tender, basting with reserved marinade.
• Sprinkle potato skins with cheese. Fill with grilled vegetables; sprinkle with remaining salt. Grill 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Cut each potato lengthwise into four wedges. Cut away the white portion, leaving 1/4 in. on the potato skins. Place skins on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 8-10 minutes or until tender. Combine the butter, rosemary, salt and pepper; brush over both sides of potato skins., Grill potatoes, skin side up, uncovered, over direct medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until lightly browned. Turn potatoes and position over indirect heat; grill 2 minutes longer. Top with cheese. Cover and grill 2-3 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with bacon and onions. Serve with sour cream.

Steps:

• Wash the potatoes and standing them on their side, cut 1/4 inch "planks". In a large bowl, toss potatoes with other ingredients until all are coated evenly. Grill should be nice and hot (approx. 550 degrees farenheit). Spray grill with PAM or coat with oil (unless it is non-stick). Lay potato planks onto the grill for 15 to 20 minutes, turning every five minutes, until done. "Done" means a nice dark golden brown with grill marks evident. (A good panini maker may cook the potatoes a bit sooner.) DIG IN!
