Ingredients
  

Potatoes
  • 24 pieces Mini Gold Potatoes
  • 0.5 cup Olive Oil divided
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
Fillings & Toppings
  • 2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 cup Turkey Bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 0.5 cup Sour Cream or Greek yogurt
  • 4 stalks Green Onions sliced

Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Oven
  • Spoon

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the mini potatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 40–45 minutes, until fork-tender.
  2. Let potatoes cool slightly, then slice each in half lengthwise. Scoop out a small portion of the center, leaving a sturdy shell.
  3. Brush the cut sides with remaining olive oil. Place cut-side down and bake for 15 minutes until crispy.
  4. Flip potatoes over, fill with cheddar cheese and turkey bacon. Bake for 5–7 minutes until cheese is melted.
  5. Top with sour cream and green onions. Serve warm.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, replace turkey bacon with sautéed or smoked mushrooms. Best served fresh for maximum crispiness.
