Crispy potato skins, built for game day, on Downshiftology
Lisa's one new recipe is oven-baked and topped with bacon, sour cream and green onion, while a Tuscan white bean soup from two weeks ago keeps simmering.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
The party appetizer that always hits | Crispy potato skins
More than 273 million lifetime views sit behind Downshiftology, Lisa Bryan's channel of gluten-free, whole-food cooking, and the newest addition to that pile is pure party food. "The party appetizer that always hits | Crispy potato skins" went up on September 27, the channel's only upload of the week, in keeping with the about text's promise of a new video every week.
The skins are baked rather than fried, then loaded the classic way: cheese, crispy bacon, a cool spoonful of sour cream and a scatter of green onion. The description pitches them squarely at game day, which fits the season. Four days in, they had passed 15,000 views and were the busiest thing on the channel.
Behind them, two earlier recipes are still finding cooks. The Tuscan white bean soup, which Lisa describes as part of a mission to make more high-fiber dishes, has passed 80,000 views in two weeks. The Korean beef bowl, billed as a 30-minute weeknight dinner of seasoned ground beef over rice with cucumber and carrot, is a week older and a little quieter. A soup, a rice bowl and a tray of potato skins: a fairly complete autumn menu, three weeks apart.
Among the cooking channels nearest her in size, Downshiftology sits fourth by subscribers. The Plant Slant is the one having the big stretch, running at more than twice its usual daily views, with Fallow and Ian Fujimoto also above their normal pace.
