This versatile classic from Debbie Jones of California, Maryland has a rich filling enhanced with onions and chives. �These scrumptious potatoes can be the main course, or a side. Either way, they�re tasty!�

Ingredients:
� 2 medium baking potatoes
� 2 tablespoons reduced-fat butter
� 1/4 cup fat-free milk
� 1 bacon strip, cooked and crumbled
� 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
� 1 teaspoon minced chives
� 1/4 teaspoon salt
� Dash pepper
� 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese, divided

Directions:
1. Bake potatoes at 375� for 1 hour or until tender. When cool enough to handle, cut a thin slice off the top of each potato and discard. Scoop out pulp, leaving a thin shell.

2. In a small bowl, mash the pulp with butter. Stir in the milk, bacon, onion, chives, salt, pepper and 1/3 cup cheese. Spoon into potato shells. Top with remaining cheese.

3. Place on a baking sheet. Bake at 375� for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted.
