🥘 Ingredients

9 items

• 4 pieces medium russet potatoes
• 0.5 cup fat-free plain Greek yogurt
• 0.5 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
• 3 slices cooked turkey bacon, crumbled
• 2 pieces green onions, thinly sliced
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 spray olive oil cooking spray

📝 Instructions

10 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

2. Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly. Use a fork to pierce each potato a few times to allow steam to escape during baking.

3. Place the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and spray lightly with olive oil cooking spray. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

4. Remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool for 10 minutes, or until they are cool enough to handle comfortably.

5. Slice each potato lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving about 1/4 inch of potato around the edges to maintain structure. Place the scooped-out potato flesh into a large mixing bowl.

6. To the bowl with the potato flesh, add the fat-free plain Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup of the reduced-fat cheddar cheese, crumbled turkey bacon, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mash the mixture until smooth and well combined.

7. Gently spoon the mashed potato mixture back into the potato skins, distributing the mixture evenly between all potato halves.

8. Place the stuffed potato halves back onto the baking sheet. Top each with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese.

9. Return the potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

10. Remove from the oven and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy!
