Wasabi Cheddar Twice Baked Potatoes made with russet potatoes stuffed with wasabi paste, butter, milk and Cheddar cheese.
If you want to add a little heat to your side dishes, these Wasabi Cheddar Twice Baked Potatoes are for you! They're super easy to make and add a tasty addition to any meal.
I took a shortcut and cooked the potatoes in the microwave before scooping out the flesh and adding the wasabi, cheese, some milk, butter and scallions; then baked them for about 10 minutes to make sure the cheese was melted and hot.
If you like your food with even more heat, increase the amount of wasabi paste you add. I'd definitely give these Wasabi-Cheddar Twice Baked Potatoes a try the next time you're looking to spice up your side dish offerings. ~Enjoy!

How do you make Wasabi Cheddar twice Baked Potatoes?
First, preheat oven to 350 degrees F; then wash the potato skins well with a vegetable brush under warm water.
Pierce 2-3 holes in the skin and place on a microwave safe dish lined with paper towels. Microwave on high for 10-15 minutes or until the flesh is soft when you insert the tip of a sharp knife. Actual time will depend on the size of your potatoes.
You can also cook the potatoes in the oven, but cooking them in the microwave saved a lot of time.
When the potatoes are done, cut them in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the flesh into a medium bowl. Save the skin as a shell and place on a baking sheet.
Add the cheese, butter, milk and scallions to the potatoes and mash well; then place them back into the four shells. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10 minutes
