With football season fast approaching, it’s time to flip through your recipe box for food to feed a crowd of hungry fans! This build-your-own baked potato grazing board is a game changer that offers every person at the tailgate all the fixings they could ever imagine to customize their own creation!

Baked Potato Board

Heinen’s offers traditional Yukon Gold baked potatoes, along with their sweet potato counterpart. Choosing the traditional route is delicious, but involves the tedious tasks of peeling and boiling. Purchasing potatoes that are pre-wrapped in plastic is an equally delicious alternative that saves so much precious time.

In the potato and onion section of your local Heinen’s Produce Department, you’ll find the potatoes wrapped in a plastic film. Simply follow the easy-to-read instructions on the label and put the potato (plastic and all) right into your microwave. Cook on high for 6-8 minutes for one, or cook up to four potatoes at once and double the cook time.

Once fully cooked, let the potatoes rest in the wrapper for about 5-10 minutes before removing the plastic, then arrange them on a platter along with traditional and non-traditional toppings.

Loaded Baked Potato

If you want to get ahead of the game, simply microwave the potatoes, remove the plastic and wrap them in tin foil to keep them warm. Assemble the potatoes around the grazing board in their foil warmers, or place them in a bowl in the center of the platter to retain as much heat as possible.

This is such a fun way to feed guests. They can serve themselves a half or whole potato and load them up with whatever toppings they crave.

Baked Potato Board

By Heinen's Grocery Store
In 1929, Joe Heinen opened the doors of a small butcher shop on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to establish himself as the city’s purveyor of quality meats. As customers came into Heinen’s new shop for their meat purchases, they began asking him to carry groceries as well. Joe added homemade peanut butter, pickles and donuts and by 1933, business had grown enough to include a line of produce and canned goods. Heinen’s Grocery Store was born.
