Brown some ground beef; put aside. Cook some baking potatoes, cut them a bit wide, the way you do for putting butter and sour cream in them. Instead, put the ground beef on top, top with cheese. If there are other things he likes, such as lettuce, chopped tomatoes, etc., make them available for him to decide. This wasn't my idea. I saw this at a local restaurant, and thought it was a great idea. A bit pricey there, but can be made quite inexpensively, too! For those wanting it a bit healthier, use a different type potato and different meat. It could be ground turkey or even meat substitute, if you season it right. Add salsa to the meal, and they won't know they're eating healthier! LOL! Hi Monique,
