Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Baby potatoes
- 5 sprays Olive oil spray
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 60 grams Reduced-fat shredded cheese
- 100 grams Non-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
- 2 slices Turkey bacon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and place them in a large pot. Cover them with water and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly until they are comfortable to handle.
Place the boiled potatoes on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one. Using the back of a fork or a potato masher, gently press down on each potato to flatten it slightly while keeping it intact.
Lightly spray the smashed potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Bake the potatoes in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and golden brown.
While the potatoes are baking, cook the turkey bacon in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Let it cool slightly, then crumble it into small pieces.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and evenly sprinkle the shredded reduced-fat cheese over the top. Return them to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Once the potatoes are done, top each one with a dollop of non-fat Greek yogurt, a sprinkle of chopped green onions, and a few pieces of crumbled turkey bacon.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthier version of smashed loaded potatoes!
