Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly, then dry them with a clean towel.
Lightly pierce each potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape while baking.
Spray the outside of each potato lightly with olive oil spray and sprinkle a pinch of salt to enhance the skin's crispiness.
Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or a baking tray, and bake for approximately 50-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife.
While the potatoes are baking, cook the turkey bacon in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Once cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess grease. Then, chop the bacon into small pieces.
Thinly slice the green onions and set aside for topping.
When the potatoes are done, carefully remove them from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes to cool slightly.
Using a sharp knife, cut a slit down the center of each potato and gently push the ends together to open them up.
Fluff the potato insides with a fork, then sprinkle 2 tablespoons of reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese on each potato. Allow the cheese to melt slightly.
Add 2 tablespoons of plain non-fat Greek yogurt onto each potato, followed by a sprinkle of chopped turkey bacon and green onions.
Season with a pinch of black pepper to taste, and serve immediately.
