Ingredients
- 4 large baking potatoes (russet)
- 6-8 slices Bacon
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup of cream cheese
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup of butter
- 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup or so of shredded Cheddar cheese
- green onions
Instructions
- Pierce each potato with the tines of a fork. Bake your potatoes on a baking sheet, bare with no tin foil, in a 400 degree oven until soft - anywhere from 40-50 minutes depending on the size!
- Start your bacon cooking, chop it into little slices and cook in a pan.
- Slice the potatoes in half when they are cool enough to handle.
- Carve out the soft insides, as much as you want, and put it in the bowl. Leave some in the potato to hold the shape. I find then when you eat it, you can literally just carve off bites one at a time, instead of a mushy mess.
- Add in your butter, sour cream and cream cheese to the potato filling, mixing in completely.
- Add milk until they are the perfect texture for your palate.
- Mix in the seasoning salt and pepper.
- Drain the cooked bacon and add it and half a cup of cheese to the filling, mixing in completely.
- Add in green onion to taste, start with a 1/4 cup.
- Stuff the potatoes with the filling and add the rest of the cheese on top.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
- Serve these with sour cream sprinkled with a little seasoning salt.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- These can be frozen and kept for up to three months.
