Super Bowl Gets Super Easy

City Greeners, Super Bowl XLVIII is rapidly approaching! While we watch as the Seattle Seahawks and the Denver Broncos face off, millions of Americans will be munching away. If your house is one of those football hot spots, here's a super easy way to liven up your Super Bowl gathering - a baked potato bar.



Baked potato bars are all the rage. You provide the potatoes and the fixins, and your guests help themselves to create their personally-crafted combination. Toppings may include shredded cheese (try some from Marcoot), chives, butter, sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt from Windcrest Dairy), olives, salsa, broccoli, bacon (from Patchwork Family Farms), chili, or anything else you think would be great with a baked potato!

While you get the toppings ready you can bake the potatoes in the oven, or you can "bake" them in the slow cooker!

Slow Cooker "Baked" Potatoes

1. Scrub the potatoes until they're clean.
2. Poke holes in the potatoes with a fork. 
3. Wrap in aluminum foil. 
4. Cook in slow cooker for 8 hours on low or 4 hours on high.  

HAPPY COOKING!
