4 Servings
Prep: 25 min. Cook: 25 min.

Ingredients

4 medium baking potatoes
1/3 cup mayonnaise
3/4 cup plus 6 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese, divided
3/4 cup French onion dip
1/2 cup real bacon bits
4 green onions, chopped
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Scrub and pierce potatoes; place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 18-22 minutes or until tender, turning once. Let stand for 5 minutes or until cool enough to handle.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, 3/4 cup cheese, dip, bacon, onions and pepper. Cut a thin slice off the top of each potato and discard. Scoop out the pulp, leaving a thin shell. Add pulp to the mayonnaise mixture and mash.
Spoon into potato shells. Return to the microwave-safe plate. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 5 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 4 servings.
