Ingredients

  • 10 precooked Yukon gold potatoes

  • 2 teaspoons granulated garlic

  • 2 teaspoons granulated onion

  • 2 teaspoons dried chives

  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  • 3 to 4 tablespoons nutritional yeast

  • 2 teaspoons dijon or stone ground mustard

  • 2 or 3 tablespoons soymilk

  • Breadcrumb Topping
  • a couple slices of Ezekiel bread

  • garlic powder, onion powder, dried herbs, and nutritional yeast to taste

Directions

  • For the breadcrumb topping, toast the bread and allow it to cool. Blend in a food processor or high powered blender. Mix in as much nutritional yeast, dried herbs, garlic and onion powder as you like. Set aside for later.*
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Cut potatoes in half and scoop out the middle, leave about a quarter of an inch of the potato. Set the potato “shells” aside, and add the flesh to a mixing bowl.
  • Add all the other ingredients to the mixing bowl with the potato flesh and mash and mix well with a fork. Add as much soymilk as needed to get a smooth, but still thick mixture.
  • Lay the potato shells out on a silicone or parchment-lined baking sheet with the cavities facing up. Then add the potato filling back in. They will be just slightly mounded over the top.
  • Sprinkle a little bit of the breadcrumb topping on each potato.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes until golden brown on top.
  • Serve immediately garnished with fresh herbs and hot sauce or any other condiment you like. Or store in the fridge for up to 4 days. Leftovers are great cold or reheated.

Notes

  • For the topping, I like to make large batches and keep on hand in a jar in the freezer. It can be used for topping casseroles, potatoes, salads, and more!
