Recipe: Baked Potatoes with Balsamic Caramelized Onion and Mushroom

In the Kitchen

By Katie Goodman

I love loaded baked potatoes, but they aren't exactly waistline friendly. Since many of us have renewed our efforts to eat healthier with the start of the new year, I thought a new loaded baked potato recipe was in order.

Instead of featuring butter, sour cream, cheese, and bacon ... basically, fat, calories, fat, and more calories; this recipe features mushrooms and caramelized onions bathed in a rich-tasting balsamic sauce. Sure, there's cheese too, but just a sprinkling for garnish, and the syrupy vinegar sauce moistens the baked potato enough so that you don't need butter and sour cream.

This also makes a great vegetarian meal for a weeknight. The baked potatoes can be made in advance and reheated later, or (though I've never tried it) I hear you can bake potatoes in a crock pot while you're away at work. And the vegetables can be prepped and stored in the fridge to cut down on hands-on time after a busy workday.
