Minty Baked Potatoes

It is amazing how a single spice – pepper, and a single herb – mint team up to create such an awesome effect in this dish. The cavities of boiled potatoes are packed with a corn and cheese mixture and a minty sauce before being baked for some time. The result is so creamy, so tasty, no one can have just one of these Minty Baked Potatoes; so make sure you make a sufficiently large batch! Serve with Vegetables and Spaghetti in Tomato Sauce and Whole Wheat Bread Rolls .
