Twice Baked Potatoes

  • 4 baking potatoes
  • Canola oil
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 1 stick butter
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 tsp seasoning salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup grated cheese (I prefer cheddar or colby jack)
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced or 1/4 tsp onion powder (I've made these using both, depending on what's in my fridge and I think they are delicious either way!)
Wash potatoes thoroughly and dry well. Coat with canola oil and bake at 400 for 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Remove and let cool slightly (10-15 minutes.) Slice potatoes in half length-wise and scoop out the middle, leaving a shell around the outside. Mix the scooped out potato with the bacon, butter, sour cream, milk, seasoning salt, pepper and onion (or onion powder) using a potato masher. Mix in 1/2 cup of cheese. Fill the potato shells with the mixture and top with remaining cheese. Bake at 300 for 10 - 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
