5 POUND POTATO SKIN

2640 Calories 

So I went home for the holiday’s to Rochester, NY where the snow falls and the winter looks like winter.  I decided why not warm up the house with a giant potato skin made from several potato skins.  It would be the best dish to serve at my mom’s party.  But alas, no one came to her party…  Not 1 person…  This was great news because I didn’t want to share this thing anyway.
