Cheat Meal Recipe: Loaded Baked Potato

Hey team Hungry & Fit, are you hungry?  This is actually what we put together for last year’s Super Bowl, if my memory serves me right, and we’re just now releasing it because well… it just feels like the right time. We’ve moved into winter and everyone’s a little more relaxed with their diets as they don’t have to worry about their beach body right now. While this doesn’t necessarily need to be an “unhealthy” or “cheat” meal, you’re more than welcome to have some fun with it and look at it as a “treat meal” instead.

We have A LOT of pictures in this post because we’re not going to deliver it like a normal recipe. Think of it as a recipe in pictures because it’s really hard to screw this one up, honestly. Throw your potatoes in the oven, prep your toppings to load it with, combine them, let everything melt and marry, and enjoy! We charred some jalapenos, pickled some onions, rendered some bacon, and grated A LOT of cheese. The best thing about this meal is it can be for vegans, vegetarians, or carnivores. You can also add as much or as little spice as you want and tracking macros on this one isn’t too hard.

It’s an easy meal, but it’s also a delicious one that isn’t expensive. Enjoy the images and let us know if you like these “pictures recipes” and want more in the future.
