Potatoes

Preparation
-
Thoroughly wash the potatoes and use a fork to poke some holes in them. Cover with a little oil and sprink them with sea salt.
-
There are two ways to bake the potatoes. You can bake them in the oven at 350 degrees F for an hour or you can bake them in the microwave for 10 minutes. Check them to see if they are somewhat soft. if not, then bake longer.
-
Allow to cool and then slice lengthwise. Scoop out the flesh into a large bowl. Save the skins
-
Add butter and cheese first and mix so they can melt. Then add the remaining ingredients. I don't really measure the ingredients. I just add to taste. Also add salt and pepper to taste. Mix them all.
-
Spoon the mixture into the potato skins. Top each with some cheese and bacon.
-
Bake for 10 minutes.
