Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash, scrub, and prick potatoes with a fork. Rub with olive oil and bake directly on the oven rack for 45–60 minutes, or until tender.
Cool slightly, then cut potatoes in half and scoop out the insides into a large bowl.
Add sour cream, milk, 1 cup cheddar, Parmesan, crumbled halal meat, and green onions. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Mash everything together until smooth and creamy.
Spread the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch casserole dish.
Top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar.
Bake at 400°F for 20–25 minutes, until golden and bubbly.
Garnish with extra green onions or halal meat bits before serving.

Notes

Substitute halal meat with sautéed mushrooms or smoked tofu for a vegetarian version.

Mix in hot sauce or Dijon mustard for added tang.

Try other cheeses like mozzarella or Monterey Jack.

Add crispy onions or breadcrumbs on top for extra crunch.

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat with a splash of milk to keep it creamy.
