I took three largish russet potatoes and 'baked' them in the microwave. I at first thought I'd cut them in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides but the skins were too thin for that so I just chopped them up into small pieces.
I put the potatoes in a bowl and added an avocado, chopped up broccoli, 3 tbs of butter, a handful of chopped up green onions, 4 cloves of garlic minced, some shredded Mexican blend cheese, and some mozzarella. I mixed this all together with a fork and then spooned the mixture onto tin foil packets to place on the grill.
The potatoes tasted awesome but doing them on the grill was a bad idea. They got crusty against the foil and that was impossible to scrape off so it was wasted. Next time it would be in one packet or done on the cooktop or stove.
