Main Ingredients

  • 4 large potatoes russet
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 4 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 0.5 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoon green onions chopped

Instructions 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Scrub the potatoes clean and pierce them with a fork. Bake for 45 minutes or until tender.
