For those of you who love twice baked potatoes but don't want to go to all the trouble of making them, this quick and easy recipe from Hillshire Farm is a great substitution. An excellent camping recipe and if you use the pre-made refrigerated mashed potatoes all you need is a bowl, a couple of utensils and a hot dutch oven to enjoy them outdoors. In my 10 inch dutch oven they baked for a total of 25 minutes with 10 coals in a ring around the bottom and 22 on the lid. After 20 minutes I sprinkled them with cheese and in a few minutes they were piping hot and ready to serve. Dress them up with your favorite toppings or add more cheese, crumbled bacon and some of your favorite herbs to the potatoes before stuffing the sausage. This one's a camping keeper, for a guilt free version use turkey Kielbasa with low-fat cheese.

Hahahaha! This is a three generation family favorite at our home. We make these in our family in the oven with hot dogs or kielbasa. We had no name for them, so when the boys were little, they named the hot dog version "Larrys." When we introduced the kielbasa version, in their infinite wisdom, they named them "Larry Larrys!"
