Sure, stuffed baked potatoes are not a new idea – but with vegan mayonnaise and plenty of Daiya Cheddar Style Shreds, this version is a plant-based dream come true! If you’re looking to dial the taste and nutrition up a notch, we recommend adding some fresh spinach to the mashed potato mix as well.

This recipe is actually two in one, with options for both a Loaded Baked Potato and a Tex-Mex version – and while the potatoes featured are two-bite-sized, the recommended toppings work just as well on a larger spud. Just don’t forget the Daiya Shreds!
