Twice Baked Potatoes

Ingredients:

- 6 Russet Potatoes

- 2 sticks of butter or margarine

- 1/2 cup Sour Cream

- Your favorite blended cheese, I use Costco Mexican Style Blend

- 1 (3oz.) Hormel Real Bacon Bits or fry 6 strips of bacon

- 1/2 cup of Soy Milk

- EVOO

- Kosher Salt

- Chopped chives

Directions:

- Scrub and rinse potatoes

- Pierce potatoes with a fork a few times on each side

- Preheat oven to 400

- Place a large piece of foil on a baking sheet, rub EVOO all over potatoes

- Sprinkle each potato with kosher salt on both sides.

- Bake in the oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes on 400

- Remove potatoes from oven, cut them in half and remove inside of potatoes completely

- In a large bowl, add potatoes without skin, 1-2 sticks of butter, 1/2 cup of sour cream, and 1/2 cup of milk (I used soy milk)

- Use a mixer to blend until creamy

- Load the potato skins with the creamy potatoes and add bacon bits and cheese on top

- Put potatoes back in the oven on 350 for 30 minutes or until skins are crispy and cheese is melted

- Top with chives, salt, and pepper

- If you don't want to do Twice Baked potatoes, just bake the potatoes in the oven on 400 for 1.5 hours or until crispy.

- Enjoy!
