Description

I developed this recipe after I found myself with 10 extra pounds of potatoes. It’s very easy and quite tasty! Also, a great way to use up those extra baked potatoes!

Ingredients

  • 6 strips Bacon, Diced
  • 4 whole Yukon Gold Potatoes, Pre-Baked And Sliced Lengthwise (see Note On Baking)
  • 2 cups Shredded Mild Cheddar
  • 4 whole Green Onions, Chopped
  • 1 jar Jalapenos Use As Desired
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 1 Tablespoon Dry Ranch Salad Dressing Mix -(Hidden Valley Ranch)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 475 degrees.

Fry your bacon until crispy and remove to paper towel lined plate. Now take a deep breath…(forgive me dietitian aunt).

Roll the potatoes in the bacon grease and place skin side up in 9 x 13 baking dish. Place the potatoes in the oven for 8-10 mins. Remove and flip potatoes over so that skin sides are down. Fill with cheese, bacon, green onions, and peppers. Serve with ranch sour cream.

Ranch Sour Cream
1 C Sour Cream
1 T Hidden Valley Ranch Dry Salad Dressing Mix
Mix well.

**I baked my potatoes wrapped in foil, sprayed with non stick cooking spray, and sprinkled with sea salt. My potatoes took about 2 hours at 400 degrees. I then sliced them & scooped out some of the insides. Save this for another use- such as baby food.

I’m not really sure how it happened, but potatoe skins are our family’s Christmas Eve Snack tradition. I will have to make these this year! My mouth is watering.

Horribly, horribly good. Rolling the skins in the bacon drippings is genius, but a bit awkward. I used a pastry brush to coat the skins. I also used only 3 strips of bacon as mine were rather large (and all I had!) I will definitely make them again – in about a year, when the guilt wears off.
