Baked Potatoes with Mushroom Ragout

October 12, 2013

Baked potatoes with mushroom ragout from The Crumb Blog is a new twist on this classic side dish.  Instead of being filled with chili or loaded with sour cream and butter, these potatoes are piled high with a creamy mushroom ragout that is absolutely delicious.  The earthy flavor of the mushrooms is the perfect partner to the mild potato.  These are great served alongside baked chicken or a juicy rib eye steak.
