Instructions

- Wash and dry potatoes, then pierce each potato with a fork or knife on all sides.
- Wrap each potato in foil and place on a baking sheet.
- Place in oven and bake for 1 ½ hours or until they are cooked thoroughly.
- Remove from oven and remove foil carefully when cool enough to handle.
- Carefully slice potatoes lengthwise, removing a "v" section from the top, when potatoes are cool enough to handle.
- Remove the insides of each potato making sure to leave some potato around the edges and place into a large mixing bowl.
- Add butter, bacon, sour cream, cheddar cheese to mixing bowl and mix well.
- Next add milk, garlic salt, green onions and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
- Spoon potato filling into each potato shell and place back on the baking sheet.
- Top with additional cheese, place back in the oven and bake until cheese has melted and potato filling is hot.
- Remove from oven and enjoy!
