Cindy's Version of Twice Baked Potatoes

Love seafood? Like potatoes? Here's a good one always to change up the traditional twice baked potato.


  1. Bake potatoes in oven or microwave till just fork tender. Allow to cool so you can handle them easily.
  2. Cut each potato in half lengthwise.
  3. Use a spoon to scoop out 3.4 of the cooked potato and place the cooked potato in a bowl. Set the potato shell aside. *Remember to leave about 1/4 inch of cooked potato in each shell.
  4. All these ingredients get diced fine, or dice fine in a processor. Celery/small shrimp/imitation crab. If you want to add onion, go lightly and make sure it's diced very fine.
  5. Add butter to your skillet and cook on med. high.
  6. Add the diced veggies and seafood and sauté all together for 4 minutes.
  7. Mix this into all the cooked potato filling you placed into a bowl.
  8. Mix well together and add just enough Mayo to pull it together.
  9. Add a little bit of Old Bay seasoning, mix and taste.
  10. Season to taste at this point and pack into the potato shells.
  11. Top with your favorite shredded cheese and pop under broiler till cheese melts and is golden brown.
  12. Serve this with your choice condiment or sauce. I prefer Sour Cream/little Mayo/slight Ketchup/good squeeze of fresh lime or lemon.
  13. Stir and season to taste. Serve plate side as dipping condiment.
