This is an easy way to dress up a baked potato.  Only Jim and I like our potatoes with onions, so I make plain ones for the kids.

Here’s what you’ll need:

Baked Potatoes with Onions

Ingredients

  • baking potatoes
  • butter
  • onion sliced thin
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Cut the potatoes part way through. Pry them open gently with the knife.
  • Spread a bit of butter into each potato.
  • Place some onion slices into each potato and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Wrap each potato in foil and bake at 350-400 degrees for 1-1 1/2 hours.

Here’s what the potatoes look like when they’re ready to be wrapped in foil.

  • Once we started doing it this way there was no looking back.
    My wife does not like the onions, but loves the flavor of the potato — so I get her onions.

  • My husband and I enjoyed these with some $1.00 filet mignons and steamed broccoli! haha We’ll definitely do the potatoes again, but…. not the steaks. Ugh. haha

    I’m glad to be a new reader of your blog and thanks for all your hard work!

    • Molly, I’m glad you liked the potatoes. $1 fillets don’t sound too good 🙂 Worth a try though. Welcome to Eat at Home. I hope you’ll find lots that you like!

  • My kids love baked potato night and I love how easy it is! This looks really good – I used to hate onions with anything but something shifted when I was pregnant with my third baby and since then I love onions with everything!
