Let's Get Started
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Rub the potatoes with olive oil and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour, or until tender.
- While the potatoes are baking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the onions and garlic and cook until soft and golden.
- When the potatoes are done, cut them in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, leaving a thin shell.
- In a bowl, mix the potato insides, bacon, onions, garlic, half of the cheese, sour cream, salt, and pepper.
- Spoon the mixture back into the potato shells and top with the remaining cheese.
- Bake for another 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Top with green onions before serving.
