Madeover Twice-Baked Potatoes
- 6 large baking potatoes
- 2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine
- 1 cup 1% low-fat milk, may not need all of this
- 14 lb turkey bacon, diced and cooked (about 9 slices)
- 1 12 cups low-fat cheddar cheese, shredded and divided (about 6 ounces)
- 2 tablespoons chives, minced
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 1 dash black pepper
- Bake the potatoes at 375 degrees for 1 hour or until tender.
- Cool.
- Cut a thin slice off the top of each potato and discard.
- Scoop out pulp, leaving a thin shell.
- In a bowl, mash the pulp with butter.
- Stir in milk, bacon, 1 cup of cheese, chives, salt, and pepper.
- I have found that using the full cup of milk makes the mixture too runny.
- I usually start with a scant 1/2 cup and then add more if necessary.
- Place on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until heated through.
- Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
- Bake 2 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.
