- 4 potatoes
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- ½ cup cooked bacon
- 2 tablespoon chopped chives
- oil to brush the potatoes
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit).
Brush the potatoes with oil, and use a fork to prick the potatoes in several places.
Bake for 45-50 minutes until they are tender to touch.
Leave the potatoes to cool for a bit, it will be easier to handle them.
Cut each potato in half vertically, then use a spoon to scoop out the filling, leaving the skin intact.
In a bowl, add about half of the potato filling, half of the cheese, then all the bacon and chives.
Mix well, each stuff each potato half with this filling.
Top them with the remaining cheese, and return to the oven for a further 10-15 minutes.
