Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Wash and scrub the Russet potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
Using a fork, prick both potatoes several times to allow steam to escape during baking.
Rub the potatoes lightly with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated. Sprinkle the skin with the salt-free seasoning blend.
Place the potatoes directly on the middle oven rack and bake for approximately 50-55 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the inside is tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes bake, prepare the toppings. Cook the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, then crumble it into small pieces. Steam the broccoli florets and chop them into bite-sized pieces.
Once the potatoes are done, carefully remove them from the oven. Let them cool slightly, about 5 minutes, to make handling easier.
Slice the potatoes open lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through. Gently fluff the insides with a fork to create a soft base for the toppings.
Top each potato evenly with a dollop of plain Greek yogurt, a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled turkey bacon, steamed broccoli florets, and chopped chives. Finish with a dash of ground black pepper for flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy loaded baked potatoes!
