Twice-Baked Bacon Potatoes image

I like these potatoes because they're so versatile. They can be served alongside a fancy entree when company comes...or they can stand as the main course with a salad for an easy supper. Either way, they're wonderful. My family loves them.-Debbie Jones, California, Maryland
