Not to be confused with potato sack… I am so excited to share this potato hack!!!

We LOVE baked potato night for a school night supper.  I usually have a variety of toppings (selected from what’s already on hand) like butter, sour cream, cheese, bacon, ham, chopped tomatoes, salsa and green onions.  It’s inexpensive, filling and easy.  The only problem I consistently run into is forgetting to start my potatoes baking in time to sit down at a decent hour.  There’s nothing worse than a partially baked potato.

So here’s the hack – and what is probably the ugliest, most unstaged picture you’ve recently seen on a blog…

THE CROCK POT!!!!!!!!!  Simply prick your potatoes with a fork, smear with butter, salt and pepper, wrap in foil and put in the crock pot.  You can bake on high for 4-5 hours or on low for 8-10 hours.

Another added benefit is that we can continue having our baked potato nights through the summer since it won’t be heating up an already boiling hot kitchen.

Happy fri-yay, y’all!
xoxo
