Ingredients
-
20 baby Yukon Gold potatoes (2 pounds)
-
6 ounces fat-free cream cheese
-
3/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
-
6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
-
1/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
-
1/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
-
2 green onions, chopped
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Directions
-
1.
Place potatoes in a Dutch oven and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook just until tender, 8-10 minutes. Drain.
-
2.
When cool enough to handle, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scoop out the pulp, leaving thin shells. Remove 1/3 cup pulp (discard or save for another use).
-
3.
In a large bowl, mash the remaining pulp with cream cheese. Add sour cream and half of the bacon. Stir in the cheeses, green onions, salt and pepper; spoon into potato shells.
-
4.
Place in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Sprinkle with remaining bacon. Bake, uncovered, at 400° until heated through, 15-20 minutes.
