Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 lb baby red potato
olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
½ cup butter, melted
1 cup sour cream
1 cup finely shredded cheddar cheese
¾ cup bacon, diced
⅓ cup green onion
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
⅓ cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
⅓ cup bacon, cooked, divided
¼ cup fresh chives, minced

Steps:

  • Wash potatoes thoroughly and poke holes in each with a fork. Place into a large bowl.
  • Sprinkle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Make sure each potato is evenly coated.
  • Place on a baking sheet covered with foil.
  • Bake at 425˚F (220˚C) for 35 minutes, or until potatoes are tender enough that a fork can go through the center flesh easily. Let cool for 10 minutes or until potatoes can be handled comfortably.
  • Cut off tips of both ends of each potato. Using a melon baller or metal teaspoon, carve out the center each potato.
  • Set the tips and carvings aside in a large bowl to use as the filling. (You may want to dice up the tips first so that they will mash easier).
  • Melt butter and mix into the large bowl with the potato filling. Mash the potatoes with a fork until consistency is smooth.
  • Mix in sour cream, cheddar cheese, bacon, green onion, salt, and pepper and stir until well combined.
  • Using a small spoon, stuff each of the hollowed out potatoes with the filling.
  • Bake at reduced temperature 375˚F(190˚C) for 5-7 minutes.
  • Top each potato with cheddar cheese and bacon.
  • Return to oven and bake for 3-5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
  • Garnish with green onion.
  • Enjoy!
