   1/2 c  Cheddar cheese; shredded
     1 tb Chives; minced
     1 ts Paprika

 Scrub and pierce potatoes; rub with oil. Bake @ 375 F/190 C
 until tender, about 1 hour.

 In a large skillet, cook and crumble the beef with onion, peppers,
 and garlic over medium heat until beef is no longer pink; drain.
 Add the mixed vegetables, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste,
 steak seasoning, salt, pepper, cayenne, and 1 ts paprika. Cook and
 stir until vegetables are tender.

 When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut a thin slice off the
 top of each and discard tops. Scoop out the pulp, leaving thin
 shells.

 In a large bowl, mash the pulp with butter. Add the whipping
 cream, sour cream, cheeses and chives. Mash potatoes until
 combined. Spoon 1 cup meat mixture into each potato shell; top
 with 1/2 cup potato mixture. Sprinkle with remaining 1 ts paprika.

 Place on a baking sheet. Bake @ 375 F/190 C for 20 minutes.
 Sprinkle with cheese; bake until melted, about 5 minutes longer.
 Sprinkle with chives and paprika.
