Ingredients
- 12 potatoes Dutch yellow baby variety
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 6 Bacon strips
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 cup refried beans
- 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese shredded
- 1 cup chipotle guacamole
- 1 cup chipotle salsa
- ½ cup scallions chopped
- sour cream as needed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Drizzle the whole potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil and place on a baking sheet. Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
- While the potatoes are baking, cook off 6 pieces of bacon until crispy and then set aside to cool. Once cooled, roughly chop the bacon.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven and let cool until they are cool enough to handle. Cut the potatoes in half, and scoop out a most of the inside of the potato, leaving about ¼ inch remaining.
- Crank the oven up to 450 degrees F.
- Place the cut potatoes back onto the baking sheet, cut side up. Lightly drizzle the tops with the remaining olive oil and a sprinkle of garlic powder and red pepper flakes and place them back into the oven for about 5-10 more minutes. Flip them onto their other side and bake for another 10 minutes before removing them from the oven.
- Arrange the potatoes on the baking sheet, cut side up. Spoon equal amounts of refried beans into each potato, followed by equal parts bacon and shredded cheese. Place the potato skins back into the oven for 3-4 minutes until the cheese melts.
- Take the potatoes out of the oven and top them with salsa, guacamole, sour cream, scallions, chives or whatever else you'd like to top them with and serve immediately.
Notes
- Bite size potatoes make this a really fun appetizer. Stick with potatoes that have sturdy skins and don't scoop out too much flesh so they stay together.
