Preheat the oven to 180\u00b0C, grease a 12-hole muffin tin and set aside until needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Wash and dry the baby potatoes. Place the potatoes in a large microwavable bowl, cover and microwave for around 10 minutes until the potatoes are fork-tender. Alternatively, boil the potatoes on the stove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Divide the potatoes between each muffin hole. Using a small cup, smash the potatoes to form potato cups with a hollow centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Grate the cheese and set aside. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Divide salt and pepper, ? of the grated cheese, the chopped broccoli and bacon between the potato cups. Add your favourite toppings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. Sprinkle the remaining ? of the cheese over the potato cups and bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7. Allow the potato cups to cool slightly before transferring to a platter. Garnish with freshly sliced spring onion and serve with a dipping sauce of your choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Visit Foodies of SA on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/foodiesofsa\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> or on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodiesofsa.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">foodiesofsa.com<\/a> for more delicious recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a video on how to prepare this recipe, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodiesofsa.com\/post\/5-ingredient-loaded-potato-cups\" target=\"_blank\">click here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the holiday, a quick and easy recipe is always most welcome.
