Volcano Potatoes
- 3 baking potatoes
- 6 slices bacon
- 3 slices sliced turkey thinly, cut into one inch squares
- 3/4 cup cheddar cheese grated
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- bbq sauce if desired
- 2 tablespoons sliced green onions
- Bake potatoes in foil for around 45 minutes on 450 degrees or until they start to get tender.
- Remove potatoes from the oven and unwrap carefully. Allow to cool enough to handle without burning yourself.
- Slice off 1/4 inch of the thicker end so they will stand upright while baking.
- Flip the potato over and cut a zigzag pattern to remove the top of the potatoes.
- Use the apple corer and remove the middle of the potato, without going too deep, leaving about half an inch to an inch at the base of the potatoes.
- Wrap 2 slices of bacon around each potato, securing tightly with toothpicks and working from the bottom to the top of each potato.
- Start with a pinch of turkey and place it into the middle of the potatoes, then add a pinch of cheese. Keep adding layers of turkey and cheddar cheese until the potatoes are almost filled to the top. Ensure your last layer at the top is turkey.
- Cook the potatoes about 35-45 minutes in the oven on 400, or until the bacon is almost cooked all the way through.
- While the potatoes cook, make volcano sauce by mixing sour cream with hot sauce in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven to add a dollop of volcano sauce and finish off with cheddar cheese on top. Brush BBQ sauce on bacon on each potato if desired.
- Put potatoes back into the oven for another 5-10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bacon is cooked through.
- Remove potatoes from the oven and serve with fresh sliced green onions.
