INGREDIENTS
1 medium Russet Potato (150g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (30g total)
2 ounces Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese (56g)
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt (60g)
1 Egg White (33g)
2 tablespoons Fresh Chives
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). Scrub the potato, pat it dry, and prick it several times with a fork.
Place the potato directly on the oven rack and bake for about 45-60 minutes until tender.
While the potato is baking, cook the turkey bacon in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Set aside on paper towels to drain and then chop into small pieces.
In a small bowl, combine the reduced-fat cheddar cheese, non-fat Greek yogurt, and egg white. Stir until smooth.
Once the potato is baked and cool enough to handle, slice it in half lengthwise and gently scoop out most of the flesh into a separate bowl, leaving a small border to keep the skin intact.
Mash the scooped-out potato flesh and mix with the cheesy yogurt mixture. Stir in the crispy bacon bits and chopped fresh chives, and season with salt and pepper.
Spoon the filling back into the potato skins, mounding it slightly.
Optional: Place the stuffed potatoes back into the oven for 5-7 minutes if you desire a warm, melded filling, or enjoy as is.
Serve immediately and savor the balanced textures and flavors.
