Ingredients

  • 6 medium russet potatoes
  • 1/2 tablespoon butter
  • 5 slices center cut bacon
  • 4 oz. reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 3 green onions
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Clean the potatoes and dry them off with a paper towel. Lay potatoes on a baking sheet and lightly spray with no-stick cooking spray. Flip them over and spray the other side too.
  • Bake 40-50 minutes (depending on the size of the potato) or until tender.
  • Allow the potatoes to cool slightly, then slice them in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out part of the insides. I used a scale to make sure each potato weighed 1.5 oz.
  • Melt butter and brush the inside of the potatoes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Sprinkle the insides of the potatoes with the cheddar cheese, bacon and green onions.
  • Return to the oven 3-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
