Preheat oven to 400 degrees Farenheit. While oven is preheating, pierce each potato a few times with a fork or knife. Once oven is hot enough, place potatoes on middle oven rack (feel free to place a cookie sheet below as there will be drippings). Bake for 45 minutes to one hour or until soft in the middle.
Once there is 15 minutes remaining, heat olive oil in a saute pan on medium heat. Saute the onions and peppers for about 3-5 minutes or until softened. Add the seitan and beans and cook an additional 3 minutes to heat the proteins.
Add the spices and cook for an additional minute to make aromatic. Turn off the heat and set aside.
Remove the potatoes once they are soft in the middle. When cool to touch, split the potatoes halfway lenghtwise leaving the bottom of the potato still intact.
Stuff the inside of the potato with the bean and vegetable mixture. Add additional toppings (optional)

This recipe can be made with your favorite meat instead of the seitan. Make sure to fully cook the meat before topping.

To make vegan, use dairy-free cheese for a topping.

To make gluten free, remove the seitan from the recipe and use extra beans or your favorite protein as a topping.
