🥔 Baked Potato Toppings For Baked Potato Bar
A baked potato bar is the perfect opportunity to offer a variety of delicious toppings that allow each person to customize their potatoes. With endless savory, spicy, cheesy, and fresh topping possibilities, you can create a baked potato masterpiece. Here is my top 10.
- Sour cream - A creamy, tangy condiment that adds moisture and balances the starchiness of the potato.
- Bacon bits - Salty, crunchy bits of bacon that provide a savory, smokey contrast to the potato.
- Shredded cheddar cheese - Melty, nutty, salty cheddar cheese is a classic topping to make it cheesy and extra rich.
- Chives - Delicate herbs that add a subtle onion flavor and green freshness.
- Broccoli florets - Tender, fresh broccoli florets give it some veggie goodness.
- Chili - Spicy chili with meat and beans makes it hearty and substantial.
- Salsa - Zesty tomato salsa with spices and vegetables adds flavor and texture.
- Sliced green onions - Sliced green onions provide a sharp, aromatic element.
- Barbecue sauce - Sweet and tangy barbecue sauce makes a fun, messy topping.
- Ranch dressing - Cool, creamy ranch balances heat and brings plenty of flavor.
