Ingredients

• 4 whole Russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 4 slices Whole30 compliant bacon
• 2 whole Avocado
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Chives

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash and dry the Russet potatoes. Use a fork to prick each potato several times to allow steam to escape while baking.

Step 3

Rub each potato with a small amount of olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.

Step 4

Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the skins are crispy and the insides are tender.

Step 5

While the potatoes are baking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and drain on paper towels.

Step 6

Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Add lime juice, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Chop the cooked bacon into small pieces.

Step 8

Once the potatoes are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.

Step 9

Cut a slit lengthwise across the top of each potato, be careful not to cut all the way through. Squeeze the ends gently to open the potatoes.

Step 10

Spoon the mashed avocado mixture generously over the potatoes.

Step 11

Sprinkle the chopped bacon and chives on top of each potato.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 compliant baked potato with bacon!
