What You Need

baking potatoes (2 lb.), baked

Tbsp. oil

jar (15 oz.) CHEEZ WHIZ Cheese Dip

1/4

cup OSCAR MAYER Real Bacon Bits

1/2

cup BREAKSTONE'S or KNUDSEN Sour Cream

green onions, sliced

Make It

HEAT oven to 375°F.

CUT potatoes lengthwise in half; scoop out centers, leaving 1/4-inch-thick shells. (Reserve centers for another use.) Cut shells crosswise in half.

PLACE shells, skin-sides down, on baking sheet; brush insides of shells lightly with oil. Bake 15 min. or until golden brown.

MICROWAVE CHEEZ WHIZ in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 3 min., stirring after 1-1/2 min. Spoon into potato shells; top with remaining ingredients.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Size-Wise

Savor every bite of this warm appetizer. Each serving, 1 potato skin, goes a long way on flavor.

Shortcut

Prepare as directed, substituting frozen waffle fries or french fries for the baked potato shells. Bake fries as directed on package. Place on serving plate. Serve topped with remaining ingredients.

Substitute

To prepare using VELVEETA® instead of the CHEEZ WHIZ, cut 1/2 lb. (8 oz.) VELVEETA into 1/2-inch cubes; place in microwaveable bowl. Microwave on HIGH 3 min. or until melted, stirring after 1-1/2 min. Pour into potato shells, then top with remaining ingredients as directed.

These were AMAZING. I made them for New Year's Eve and everyone loved them. A much more cost effective and delicious option than the store bought brands.

This was great. Even my mother-in- law raved how good it was. I used real crumbled bacon. It really added to the flavor. Great for football games or any other parties.

Too putzy to make. And who wants to throw away all those potatoes? I made this for a game night, and had more than half leftover--all the other food was gone.

Simply put- It was great...Everyone loved them. They were simple, easy, and good. A great appetizer. Used fresh bacon instead of bacon bits...

I made these for a Super Bowl party. They went over very well. And, as long as you make up the skins ahead of time, very quick to put together.

These potato skins were very tasty, and pretty easy too, I would make them again.

These were so easy to make! I will probably make them a lot for entertaining. I had all the extras on the side. I only put cheese on them after I took them out of the oven. Everyone loved them. They did not last long enough to get cold.
