Baked Red Potato Appetizers with Parmesan Filling
These Mini Red Potato Appetizers are unexpectedly delicious and guaranteed to be a hit at your next gathering! Tender red potatoes are hollowed out and filled with a creamy, cheesy mixture that bakes to golden perfection. You’ll be making these on repeat—trust me!
Ingredients
Mini red potatoes, whole
1 cup mayonnaise (or more, as needed)
1 cup green onions, finely chopped (or more, as needed)
1 cup (or more) grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Prepare the Potatoes:
Steam the mini red potatoes whole until tender (test with a knife for doneness).
Allow the potatoes to cool slightly, then cut each one in half.
Scoop out a small portion of the inside from each half, leaving enough potato for stability. Discard the scooped-out bits.
Make the Filling:
In a bowl, mix equal parts mayonnaise, chopped green onions, and grated Parmesan cheese. Adjust the quantities to taste—more Parmesan is always a good idea!
Fill and Bake:
Spoon the filling into each potato half, generously mounding it on top.
Arrange the filled potato halves in a casserole dish.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes, or until the tops are golden and bubbly.
Serve:
Serve these appetizers hot, straight from the oven. They’re best enjoyed warm, so don’t wait too long—dig in!
Pro Tip
You can prepare the potatoes and filling ahead of time. Assemble them just before baking for a stress-free appetizer that’s ready when you are!
Enjoy this simple yet indulgent treat!
