INGREDIENTS
1 medium Russet Potato (~173g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (~30g each)
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (~80g)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Cheddar Cheese, shredded (~28g)
1 large Egg White (~33g)
1 tbsp Fresh Chives, chopped
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Wash the potato thoroughly and pierce it a few times with a fork. Bake directly on the oven rack for about 45-55 minutes until tender.
Once baked, allow the potato to cool slightly. Slice it in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the insides into a bowl, leaving a thin shell of the flesh attached to the skin.
Mash the scooped potato with the egg white, nonfat Greek yogurt, and low-fat cheddar cheese until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Crisp up the turkey bacon by cooking it in a skillet over medium heat until it's just starting to brown, then chop into small pieces and fold into the mashed mixture along with chopped fresh chives.
Fill the potato shells with the mixture, mounding it slightly. Place the filled potato halves back in the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the tops are lightly golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and serve warm as a satisfying, protein-rich meal.
