Ingredients
- 4 pieces medium russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup fat-free plain Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
- 3 slices cooked turkey bacon, crumbled
- 2 pieces green onions, thinly sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 spray olive oil cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly. Use a fork to pierce each potato a few times to allow steam to escape during baking.
Step 3
Place the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and spray lightly with olive oil cooking spray. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 4
Remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool for 10 minutes, or until they are cool enough to handle comfortably.
Step 5
Slice each potato lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving about 1/4 inch of potato around the edges to maintain structure. Place the scooped-out potato flesh into a large mixing bowl.
Step 6
To the bowl with the potato flesh, add the fat-free plain Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup of the reduced-fat cheddar cheese, crumbled turkey bacon, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mash the mixture until smooth and well combined.
Step 7
Gently spoon the mashed potato mixture back into the potato skins, distributing the mixture evenly between all potato halves.
Step 8
Place the stuffed potato halves back onto the baking sheet. Top each with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese.
Step 9
Return the potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy!
