Serve them as is for a side dish or round them out as a meal by serving a steamed veggie and garden salad alongside.

These loaded potatoes work great for lunch, too! We like to make 2-3 extra potatoes worth and save them to bring to work the next day. They hold up very nicely and can quickly be reheated in the microwave at work. They are definitely one of our favorite recipes for meal prep.

Lastly, since you will have the filling of the potatoes leftover, we recommend saving it to make some delicious mash potatoes. You can serve them alongside a breakfast scramble bowl or turn them into potato pancakes! You know, with a side of bacon and avocado, of course!
