Heavenly Twice-Baked Potatoes

She Said:

I wrote in my last post about these heavenly twice-baked potatoes that we had on Valentine's Day. Well, He made them again and we had them plus steamed broccoli and red peppers for dinner last night. Oh, good grief! These things are SOOO good! (And almost vegetarian - you can tweak as you wish.)

Twice-Baked Potatoes

2 medium baking potatoes
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 tablespoon milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 oz. cream cheese, cubed
3 tablespoons sour cream
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 green onions, sliced

1. Pierce potatoes and bake at 375℉ for 1 hour or until tender. Cool.
2. Cut a thin slice off the top of each potato. Scoop out the pulp and place in a mixing bowl. Add butter, milk and salt. Beat until fluffy. Beat in cream cheese and sour cream. Add crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese, and green onions and mix well.
3. Spoon mixture back into potato shells. Place potatoes on a baking sheet. Bake at 350℉ for 20-25 minutes or until tops are golden brown.

We actually made three potatoes last night and split the leftover one for lunch today. We chopped it up and reheated in the microwave. Still really, really delicious! I can really recommend these!
