Baked potato with Chorizo & Tzatziki

Wow, what a success, both in taste and in popularity. I par-boiled large baking potatoes, then baked them for half an hour at 450f. Cranked up the heat to 500f for the last ten minutes to crisp the skin. Meanwhile, I opened the casing on two chorizo sausages and pan-fried the meat. We topped our potatoes with the meat,  tzatziki, and green onions. Added sides of green leaf lettuce salad and broccoli-leak soup. Delicious!  And fairly healthy; lots of saturated greens and protein. Kind of hi-fat, but not too bad since the meat was more of a condiment than the bulk of the meal.
