The Potatoes – the main part of a loaded jacket potato is, well; the potatoes. Just rub them with a little oil and season them with salt and pepper.

The Mince – Savoury Mince is one of those delicious Australian meals that everyone seems to have a different take on. For this one, I’ve kept it simple with just a few sauces, seasonings and of course, some onion and garlic.

The Coleslaw – a bit of red cabbage, carrot and capsicum make up this delicious topping! drowned in an easy homemade coleslaw dressing, this is sure to be a winner!

The Finishing Touches – to finish off this amazing meal, I like to melt the cheese over the mince, add coleslaw and then top with sour cream! Yum!
