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 weren't hard to make and they tasted like ones you'd get at a restaurant!

Baked many small potatoes and made the baked potato soup with the pulp(fall 2005) used the skins for the super skins. Big hit. Although our team lost these were a winner, along with the soup. And better yet, no waste.

I made this recipe with the waffle fries. Very easy to make for a quick snack for the kids (I have teen-agers) and very yummy. Will most definately make this one again.

I used monterey jack cheese instead of the cheese whiz. These were very good!

I made this for a group of very picky guys, who claim to hate anything low fat. I used the 2% Velveeta and reduced fat sour cream, and they LOVED them. I will definitely make this one again.

These were a huge hit at my neighborhood party. I used 8 smaller potatoes and put them under the broiler at the end. I also used shredded cheese. I agree that they take longer than 30 min. to prepare, but are worth it in the end. If you are looking for a unique appetizer...this is the great one. Especially for football parties!

I also do this recipe while camping. Just wrap in foil and cook over the campfire. No need to prebake the potatoes either. It is yummy.
