I often make this for company and it is always a hit. It is a basic, but tasty comfort food. The Dijon lends a tangy flavor balanced by the creaminess. This can be adapted to be more lowfat (see notes), but the full fat version is the best. Read more A Joy of Cooking recipe See less
Ingredients
- 4 large baking potatoes, rubbed with olive oil, pierced and baked in a 400 degree oven for about 50 minutes shopping list
- 1 cup shredded Jack or sharp cheddar cheese shopping list
- 1/2 cup sour cream shopping list
- 4 slices cooked bacon or ham, chopped shopping list
- 4 green onions, chopped shopping list
- 2 t Dijon mustard shopping list
- 1/2-1 t hot red pepper sauce shopping list
- chives for topping shopping list
- Note: Substitute low fat cheese and sour cream and lean ham for a healthier version-- still good! shopping list
How to make it
- Allow potatoes to cool a bit and cut a slit in the top of each
- Squeeze the potato open and scrape out the filling, leaving about a 1/2 shell
- It is fine to remove the top of the potato lengthwise to get to the pulp (like making a boat or canoe)
- Mix the cooked pulp with the cheese mixture
- Mound the filling into the potato shells
- Place the stuffed potatoes into a greased baking dish
- Bake about 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted
- Sprinkle with chives
- Enjoy

These potatoes sound wonderful, not low fat though. ;) I will be saving this recipe for a special dinner with my husband. He loves twice baked potatoes.
