INGREDIENTS

  • 2 large russet potatoes
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Dash pepper
  • 2 tablespoons sliced green onion
  • 2 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

DIRECTIONS

  1. Bake potatoes at 375 degrees F for 1 hour or until tender. When cool enough to handle, cut a thin slice off the top of each potato; scoop out pulp, leaving a thin shell. In a bowl, mash the pulp, egg, milk, mayonnaise, 1/2 cup of cheese, salt and pepper. Spoon into potato shells. Top with onion, bacon and remaining cheese.
  2. Place in a small ungreased baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees F for 25-30 minutes or until heated through.

Delicious! Instead of the whole potato, I sliced it in half after it was done so it'd be easier to scoop the potato out.

Good recipe. Good flavor. The cheese on top was very dry and over cooked. I would add the cheese about 10-15mins before the potatoes are done, or for a creamier taste, top with melted velveeta cheese. Yummy!
