5 Ingredient Baked Potato Skins

Easy to make, a great way to use leftover taters (of course I make sure I have leftovers, LOL) with a stuffing that is thick enough to stay on the skin and not run over.

Ingredients

• 4  baked potatoes, cooled
• 4  ounces cream cheese
• 1⁄4 cup bacon bits
• 3⁄4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400.
2. Cut potatoes into quarters lengthwise, scoop out center leaving 1/2 inch of flesh, reserve centers for another use.
3. Combine cream cheese, cheddar, bacon bits and pepper flakes until blended, mixture should be thick.
4. Press onto each skin.
5. Bake for 15 minutes, switch to broil and toast tops for another 3 or until lightly browned.
