Description

I threw a surprise 35th birthday party for my hubby last night. He LOVES baked potatoes. Not unhealthy, right? But often baked potatoes are more about what you put on them; he loves to load his with ranch dressing, bacon, and cheese. I, of course, modified these a little bit by using lower-fat ingredients. Note: they are not “healthy,” but they are a lovely alternative to many other high-fat party foods!

Ingredients

  • 6 whole Medium Russet Potatoes, Baked
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ cups Reduced Fat Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 package (1 Oz. Packet) Ranch Dressing Mix
  • 1 cup Low Fat Sour Cream
  • 4 slices Lean Bacon, Cooked (microwave) And Crumbled

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Allow baked potatoes to cool for approximately 15 minutes. Quarter potatoes (slice lengthwise and then crosswise). Place potato quarters on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Sprinkle lightly with salt and then sprinkle with cheese. Place quarters in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Mix ranch dressing mix into sour cream.

Remove potatoes from the oven and top with about 1 tablespoon of sour cream and sprinkle lightly with bacon.

Baking potatoes typically takes ~45-60 minutes in a 350 degree oven. The potato bites are then baked until the cheese melts.
