While we lived in England we were introduced to a very simple yet strangely wonderful, satisfying meal....The Jacket Potato.
All it really is a an over sized baked potato with yummy fillings which can vary depending on how much you have in your fridge or pantry. Fantastic for a family on a budget, but as you may have guessed by some of the other meals, they will never feel like they are being fed on a budget!
