Everyday Hacks That Make Us Feel Like We’re Winning at Life

Baked potatoes are such a delicious side item for your dinner. Heck, sometimes they are perfect as your main course! They are easy to prepare, and you can add any variety of toppings. When we feel extra lazy, we love to prepare our potatoes in the microwave, but sometimes the bottom of the potato doesn’t cook as well as the rest.

To ensure that your potato is fully cooked all the way through, you need to raise its bottom off the plate. You can make little legs for your potato to stand on! Just insert a few toothpicks into the bottom of your potato to create a small stand for it. This allows the air to flow around all sides of your potato, cooking it evenly.
