JACKET POTATO


The jacket potato is one easy, and nutritious meal you can make at any time. To think that I just discovered this meal a few months ago is quite funny. All my life, I have always peeled the skin of my potato before cooking, but with Jacket potato, you can enjoy a crispy skin and soft flesh potatoes.
