Chicken Stuffed Twice Baked Potatoes Recipe

"Everybody makes twice baked potatoes with ham or bacon. But I thought " Why not make it with leftover chicken ? " So that's what I did. I used leftover Fried Chicken,but you could use any type of cooked chicken. I bet BBQ Chicken would be REALLY good.The cooling time is included in the " PREP TIME ". The second baking time is included in " COOK TIME " which is 1 1/2 hours. Posted to ZAZZ on 7/25/16. " Keep Smiling :)"
