By curly

Ingredients

• 4 small baking potatoes
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/3 cup real bacon bits
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• Dash paprika

Preparation

Step 1

Scrub and pierce potatoes; place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 7-10 minutes or until tender, turning once. Let stand for 5 minutes. Cut a thin slice off the top of each potato and discard. Scoop out pulp, leaving a thin shell.

In a large bowl, mash the pulp with butter and milk. Stir in the cheese, bacon, onions, mustard and paprika. Spoon into potato shells. Return to the microwave-safe plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 1-2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
