    Recipe Introduction


    Using a melon baller to scoop out the potato pulp is easier and leaves an even shell.


    List of Ingredients


    • 12 small round red potatoes (about 1 pound)
    • 1 1/2 tsp olive oil
    • 3/4 cup minced onion
    • 1/4 cup uncooked, diced turkey bacon (about 2 slices)
    • 1/8 tsp freshly ground pepper
    • 3 garlic cloves, minced
    • 1/2 cup (2 oz) grated fresh parmesan cheese
    • 1 tsp rubbed sage


    Instructions


    1. Cook potatoes in boiling water 15 minutes or until tender; drain.
    2. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, bacon, pepper, and garlic; saute 5 minutes or until tender.
    3. Preheat broiler
    4. Cut potatoes in half; carefully scoop out pulp, leaving a 1/4-inch shell. Mash potato pulp with fork; stir in cheese and sage. Add to onion mixture, stirring well. Spoon about 1 tablespoon potato mixture into each shell. Arrange stuffed potatoes on a baking sheet, and broil 3 to 4 inches from heat 3 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm.
