Potato skins remind me of my childhood. My dad would take us to Houlihan’s every Friday, I would order a Shirley Temple that would come with a plastic monkey straw and I’d get potato skins without fail. This is an homage to that indulgent dish, plant-ified and Bonberi-fied. You can get creative and add your open stuffings!
