Loaded Baked Potatoes
Ingredients
4 large russet potatoes
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
2 tbsp butter
2 green onions, sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub the potatoes clean and pierce each one with a fork.
Bake the potatoes directly on the oven rack for 45-60 minutes, or until fork-tender.
Carefully slice each potato lengthwise and scoop out most of the flesh, leaving a thin layer attached to the skin.
Mash the scooped-out potato with butter, sour cream, salt, and pepper until creamy.
Fold in half of the shredded cheddar cheese and half of the crumbled bacon.
Refill the potato skins with the mashed mixture. Top with remaining cheese and bacon.
Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with green onions and fresh parsley before serving.
