These hearty stuffed potatoes are a meal all on their own! Eggs add a protein boost to these twice-baked delights, making them perfect for lunch or dinner.
Ingredients
2 warm baked potatoes
3 large eggs
3 tbsp (45 mL) sour cream
3 tbsp (45 mL) chopped chives
8 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper
3/4 cup (185 mL) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice potatoes in half lengthwise; scoop out inside flesh of potatoes with spoon, being careful not to pierce skins.
Combine potato flesh, eggs, sour cream, chives, bacon, salt and pepper in a medium bowl, mixing well. Stuff potato skins with egg and potato mixture. Sprinkle cheese over top.
Bake in preheated 375°F (190°C) oven until cheese melts and becomes golden, and the internal temperature of the potato mixture is 160 °F (72°C) – about 15 minutes.
