What foods do you eat for Lent? One of my favorite Lent dishes is Broccoli Cheddar Stuffed Baked Potatoes. Soft, baked potatoes, lightly mashed in the middle and drowning in the cheesiest, creamiest, broccoli sauce that you’ve ever tasted.
If you’re making this for your families then it’s a great dish to encourage green vegetables into their meals!
To make Broccoli Cheddar Stuffed Baked Potatoes, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 400 ºF.
Use a fork to randomly pierce 4 potatoes, all over and generously coat with about 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Place on a baking sheet and season with salt.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes until very soft.
In a medium pot over medium heat, combine 3 tablespoons of butter and 3 tablespoons of flour. Whisk continuously until the mixture melts, begins to bubble and foam. Cook for 1 minute, taking care to not brown the flour.
Pour in 3 cups of whole milk and whisk to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer, continuously whisking until thickened then lower the heat.
Once thickened, season with ½ teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder.
Working in batches, add a handful of shredded Cheddar cheese to the sauce and stir through. Allow cheese to fully melt before adding the next batches from 6 oz of cheese in total.
Once cheese is fully melted, stir in ½ pound of chopped broccoli pieces. Keep warm over a low heat.
Once cooked, carefully slice the potatoes open, along the top. Use a fork to lightly mash the inside of the potatoes.
To serve, ladle the broccoli cheese sauce over each potato and garnish with extra shredded Cheddar cheese, if you wish. Enjoy!
