INGREDIENTS
1 medium Russet Potato (150g)
2 slices Lean Bacon (approx. 16g total)
1 ounce Sharp Cheddar Cheese (28g)
1 cup Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt (245g)
2 tablespoons Fresh Chives
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Scrub the russet potato clean, then pat it dry. Prick the potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape.
Place the potato directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet and bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and a fork easily pierces the flesh.
While the potato bakes, cook the lean bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once done, place on a paper towel to drain excess fat and then crumble or slice into bite-sized pieces.
When the potato is ready, remove it from the oven. Cut a slit lengthwise and gently fluff the inside with a fork.
Sprinkle the melted sharp cheddar cheese atop the hot potato so it softens and begins to melt.
Add a generous dollop of nonfat plain Greek yogurt over the cheese and potato.
Top with the crispy bacon pieces and garnish with fresh chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
