    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: arelabs

    List of Ingredients




    4 large baking potatoes
    8 slices bacon
    1 cup sour cream
    1/2 cup milk
    4 tablespoons butter
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon pepper
    1 cup shredded Cheddar
    cheese, divided
    8 green onions, sliced, divided

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
    Bake potatoes in preheated oven for 1 hour.
    Meanwhile, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
    When potatoes are done allow them to cool for 10 minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a large bowl; save skins. To the potato flesh add sour cream, milk, butter, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup cheese and 1/2 the green onions. Mix with a hand mixer until well blended and creamy. Spoon the mixture into the potato skins. Top each with remaining cheese, green onions and bacon.
    Bake for another 15 minutes.

    I used the whole 5 lb bag of Idaho potatoes. I used 1/2 cup sour cream, and inceased the milk to one cup, adding as needed. I increased salt to 1 teaspoon (I always use lower sodium salt).

    This can also be baked as one large casserole
