Twice-baked potatoes

4 medium Potatoes
Ground beef or ground turkey or chicken... whichever you want!
Broccoli chopped
1 Cup of water
1 Cup cheddar cheese or pepper jack
1/2 cup of sour cream
salt
pepper

I just followed exactly what the recipe said. You can kind of do however you want!

Pierce potatoes all over with a fork. Place in the microwave and cook at 50% power, turning once or twice, until the potatoes are soft, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, brown meat in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring often. Transfer to a large bowl.

Increase heat to high, add broccoli and water to the skillet, cover, and cook until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain the broccoli; add to the meat.

Carefully cut off the top third of the cooked potatoes; KEEP the tops for another use. Scoop the insides out into a medium bowl. Place the potato shells in a small baking dish.

Add 1/2 cup Cheddar, sour cream, salt and pepper to the potato insides and mash with a fork or potato masher.

Add the potato mixture to the broccoli and meat; stir to combine.

Evenly divide the potato mixture among the potato shells and top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Microwave on high until the filling is hot and the cheese is melted, 2 to 4 minutes.
