Bacon and Cheese Potato Skins

Ingredients:

• 4 baking potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch slices
• 1/4 cup Hiland Dairy Butter
• 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
• 8 oz. Hiland Dairy Shredded Cheddar Cheese
• 1/2 cup green onions, chopped

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush both sides of potato slices with butter; place them on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until lightly browned on both sides, turning once. When potatoes are ready, top with bacon, cheese and green onion; continue baking until the cheese has melted. Tip: Hiland Dairy Sour Cream is a great addition when serving these potato skins.
