Chili Baked Potatoes

Baked Potatoes are called Jacket Potatoes in the UK and when topped with chili these are hearty enough to be the main meal. Start with a salad and a crisp vinaigrette.

Build your own for one or a crowd, with a Chili Potato Bar and offer up southwestern flavours to the usual bacon and chive condiments.

Depending the crowd, we serve Chili Con Carne or Turkey Chili, both work equally well.

Chili Baked Potatoes

Potatoes do carry a lot of Carbs with them, so it’s important to be aware and go from there.

Use Russet potatoes, they are the best for baking.
