Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 12 potato skin shells ((see note for recipe))
  • 8 ources cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 large jalapeno (seeded, finely chopped (or more))
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup monterey jack cheese (shredded (or mozzarella))
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1-2 strips bacon (cooked, chopped (optional))

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Once your potato skins are prepared (see note below for recipe), place them skin side down on a large cookie sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, jalapeno, sour cream, monterey jack cheese, garlic powder, and salt.
  • Scoop the cream cheese mixture into each potato skin. The shape of the potato will vary, so if they are large you may need more filling. And if they are small or thin you may have extra.
  • Top each potato as desired with bacon, additional monterey jack, and additional jalapenos if you wish.
  • Bake the potato skins until the cheese has melted and is starting to turn a light brown, approximately 12-15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and serve warm with sour cream or other dipping sauces.
