Ingredients
- 12 potato skin shells (see note for recipe)
- 2 leeks white and light green part only
- 6 ounces brie
- 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Cut your leeks into 1/2 inch slices (white and light green parts only). Put them in a bowl of water and gently swish them around to loosen any dirt in the layers.
- Lay the leek slices on the baking sheet at the same time as you cook the potato skins and brush them with some of the oil mixture before baking.
- Cook your potato skins and leeks. See notes for links to recipes for potato skin shells.
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Once your potato skins are prepared, place them skin side down on a lined large cookie sheet.
- Cut the brie into slices approximately 1/4 inch thick. Then cut the brie strips to just fit inside each potato skin. Top with a few slices of leeks. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
- Bake until the cheese on top is starting to brown and the cheese filling is hot and starting to melt, approximately 12-15 minutes. Serve immediately.
