• When you (or your kids) are hungry, an hour can seem like a lifetime to wait for that potato to bake. We usually throw a few spuds into the oven when we're doing the Sunday roast. When the potatoes are done, we just wrap them in aluminum foil and keep them in the fridge. Then, they're all ready to be reheated and stuffed for the next night's dinner.
