Loaded baked potatoes have always been one of my favorite quick dinners. Growing up, baked potatoes were rotated on the menu, and were a favorite for camping weekends. The potatoes were wrapped in aluminum foil and popped into the fire until they were charred on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. We have a gas fireplace and no firepit so we can’t do that, but we can still make baked potatoes in the oven.
These are perfect for when you have leftovers from the night before that need to be used up.

About Boca Essentials
New Boca Essentials is a line of vegetable and grain-based patties that offers a source of “complete protein” to people looking for meatless meal options. * Complete protein refers to the nine essential amino acids that the human body needs, but cannot produce on its own.
Many of these amino acids are typically found in meat, but each Boca Essentials flavor contains all nine, in the correct proportion. They are a protein-packed meat alternative meal option that helps fuel their days.
The Boca Essentials line includes three new flavors:
- Breakfast Scramble with potatoes, scrambled eggs, and vegetables
- Roasted Vegetables and Red Quinoa with brown rice
- Chile Relleno with green chile peppers, black beans, and brown rice
The three varieties of Boca Essentials are available at select retailers nationwide. They can be found in the freezer case at grocery stores. A single, 10-ounce pack contains four patties and retails for $4.29.
