Twice Nuked Potatoes
Total Time: 25 mins
Preparation Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Ingredients
- 4 large idaho potatoes
- 1 bunch green onion, chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 12 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- salt
- pepper
Recipe
- 1 wash and pierce potatoes.
- 2 cook in microwave until a knife will go all the way through potato easily (times will depend on size of potatoes and microwave wattage, but about 10 minutes or so is the average for me).
- 3 cut top off each potato lengthwise.
- 4 scoop out most of potato flesh trying not to go all the way through skin.
- 5 in large mixing bowl add potato, green onions, cheddar cheese (reserve some for top), egg, bacon, sour cream, and salt & pepper (remember to add plenty of salt).
- 6 smoosh everything together with a potato masher.
- 7 add mixture back to skins, mounding it up.
- 8 sprinkle with reserved cheese.
- 9 nuke again until cheese is melted (about 3 minutes).
- 10 note: i do all of this while the potatoes are still hot so that the egg gets a little pre-cooking from the heat of the potatoes and that, combined with the 3 minutes in the microwave, will cook the egg just fine. remember that microwaves cook from the inside out so the egg will be cooked before the cheese melts.
- 11 enjoy!
