Stuffed Potatoes

Bake large potatoes well; take leftover meat and mince it. Split the potatoes, remove the pulp, mix with the meat, salt and pepper and a large lump of butter. Put this back into the potato shell and hold the two parts together with toothpicks. Put back in the oven and bake ten minutes longer.
