Description

I fill my restaurant-worthy baked potato boats with cheese, bacon and a dollop of sour cream. Have them at lunch, snack time or cocktail hour. —Trish Perrin, Keizer, Oregon

Ive been making these since the recipe first appeared in 1998. I think the salt is a matter of preference and depends on how much you use as well as the type of Parmesan you choose. Those less expensive cheeses can be saltier. Personally I use Pecorino Romano as we prefer that. Ive used those ready made bacon bits on occasion but havent in some time. Overall this is a great recipe. When serving for a party I bake the potatoes ahead, scoop out the centers & get the oil & seasonings put together ahead of time for quick prep work later. They come out great every time!

These are the best ever!

Great easy recipe. Received rave reviews at our super bowl party. Have made them again using a jar of bacon bits and still received request for the recipe.

I will never want to order potato skins at a restaurant again, these are better.

Delicious! I'm going to need to tweak it though, not as crisp as I expected. Maybe take out my potato?

Great recipe that received several compliments. I highly recommend.

I finally found a potato skin recipe with great taste and just the right crispness! My whole family loved them and said these were the best skins they ever had!

These were awesome! Just made them for the Super Bowl tonight. They take a little time but its worth it! I omitted the salt on others suggestions but next time Ill add it and see. We thought it was missing a little salt, however, I use lower sodium bacon so maybe that is the difference. Great recipe!

These are fantastic! I made them as an appetizer for my yearly cookie dough party and for xmas eve at my in-laws. Big hit. Will make again soon but just for us!

A great potato skin recipe. I had been looking for one that was tasty and not too difficult.
