Sloppy Joe Baked Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Pierce the potatoes in a few places with a fork; place on a microwave-safe plate and microwave until tender, turning once, about 15 minutes. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 7 minutes. Add the turkey and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper; cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink on the surface, about 5 minutes. Stir in the ketchup, chili sauce, 1/2 cup water, the chili powder and garlic powder; continue cooking until the meat is cooked through, 3 to 5 more minutes.
• Split the baked potatoes open lengthwise, dot with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and gently fluff the flesh with a fork. Top with the turkey mixture and sprinkle with the cheese while still hot.

Steps:

• Prick potatoes with a knife and rub with butter.
• Place on a microwavable plate and cook on high for 6 minutes.
• Spin the potatoes around in the butter and continue to cook for 6-8 more minutes, or until tender.
• Let stand for 5 minutes in microwave.
• Cut a slit down the center of the potatoes and press the ends to make a little well for the fillings.
• Spoon the sloppy joe"stuff" into the potatoes and top with the cheese.
• Microwave for 1-2 minutes or until the cheese haves melted.
• Serve with addition topping choices.
