You’ll want to create a pair of Idaho Potato Bugs with each baker. \u00a0Here’s all you need to do. \u00a0Preheat oven to 350 degrees. \u00a0Smear potatoes with softened butter, salt it, poke with fork times a couple of times, and bake for 1 to 1-1\/2 hours till done, unless you cut the time with these great potato nails that bake potatoes so much faster<\/a>. \u00a0Meantime, clean shrimp and set aside. \u00a0Grate the cheddar cheese. \u00a0When potato is done, cool to handle. Cut in half lengthwise and carefully remove the cooked potato to a bowl, reserving skin whole. \u00a0Mash potato with cream cheese, milk, butter, onion and parsley. Add salt and pepper to taste and \u00bd of the grated cheese and mix gently. \u00a0Melt 2 tablespoons of butter with garlic and drench the shrimp in it. Hang shrimp over the potato skin as pictured above. \u00a0Fill skin with potato mixture, sprinkle remaining cheese over top of the bug. \u00a0Bake at 350 degrees for 15 more minutes. \u00a0Remove from oven and add olive slices for “eyes” and a snip of red pepper for a “nose.”<\/p>\n EEK!\u00a0 It's a Thug... \u00a0 \u00a0 Trick or Treat...it's a Idaho Potato Bug!
