These tempting potatoes are a real treat, even though they don't contain heavy sour cream or cream cheese. Chives, onion, bacon and reduced-fat cheddar cheese still provide big flavor and make a side dish perfect for a special meal. Prepare a double or triple batch to serve a group.Debbie Jones, California, Maryland Ingredients:
2 medium baking potatoes |
2 tablespoons reduced-fat butter |
1/4 cup fat-free milk |
1 bacon strip, cooked and crumbled |
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion |
1 teaspoon minced chives |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
dash pepper |
1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese, divided |
Directions:
1. Bake potatoes at 375° for 1 hour or until tender. When cool enough to handle, cut a thin slice off the top of each potato and discard. Scoop out pulp, leaving a thin shell.
2. In a small bowl, mash the pulp with butter. Stir in the milk, bacon, onion, chives, salt, pepper and 1/3 cup cheese. Spoon into potato shells. Top with remaining cheese.
3. Place on a baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 2 servings.
