Description
Not your average potato skin.
Ingredients
- FOR THE POTATO SKINS:
- 6 Medium Potatoes
- 1 pound Ground Beef
- 1 package (about 1 Oz. Packet) Taco Seasoning
- 1 cup Colby Jack Cheese
- 2 dashes Jalapeno Peppers, Diced
- Shredded Queso Cheese
- FOR THE TOPPINGS:
- 4 strips Bacon, Cooked And Crumbled
- Fresh Diced Tomatoes
- Avocado, Cubed For Garnish
- Sour Cream (optional)
- Chives (optional)
Preparation
1. Bake potatoes for 1 hour. While the potatoes are cooking, begin to cook your beef in a medium sauce pan on medium high heat. Drain the beef when it is thoroughly cooked and drain. Return back to pan on low heat and stir in taco seasoning and Colby jack cheese. The cheese will begin to melt. Once the cheese has melted, turn the heat off.
2. One the potatoes are done cooking, allow to cool for 15 minutes. Cut the potatoes in half and scoop some of the potatoes out of the middle. You can keep the extra potatoes for another dish. In the middle of the potatoes, add about a spoonful of the beef and add a few chopped jalapenos as well. Top off with shredded queso cheese and place back in the oven for 20 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted and slightly brown.
3. Once the skins are complete, top the potato skins with bacon, tomato, and avocado. If you would like, you can add a dollop of sour cream, garnish with chives, and serve!
