Game-Day Potato Skins

6 potatoes
1 cup vegetable oil
8 oz. shredded vegan cheddar cheese
1/8 cup soy bacon bits
4 Tbsp. thinly sliced scallions (optional)
Soy sour cream or vegan ranch dressing (optional)

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9-inch-by-13-inch baking pan.
• Pierce the potatoes with a fork and microwave on high for 10 to 12 minutes, or until soft.
• Remove from the microwave and cut in half vertically. Scoop out the inside, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell.
• Heat the oil to 365°F in a deep fryer or a deep saucepan. Fry the potato skins for 5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
• Fill the potato shells with the vegan cheese and the soy bacon bits. Arrange on the prepared baking pan and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the "cheese" has melted.
• Top with the sliced scallions and the soy sour cream or ranch dressing, if desired.

1 12-oz. jar marinated artichoke hearts

• Drain the artichoke hearts, but do not rinse them. Chop up the artichoke hearts and garlic.
