INGREDIENTS
1 medium Russet Potato (~200g)
4 slices Bacon
1/2 cup Non-Fat Plain Greek Yogurt (~120g)
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese (shredded) (~28g)
1 tablespoon Fresh Chives (chopped)
Seasonings (Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder) to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the potato thoroughly and prick it with a fork. Bake it directly on the oven rack for about 45-50 minutes until tender.
While the potato bakes, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and allow it to cool before crumbling it into small pieces.
When the potato is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. Slice it in half lengthwise. Scoop out most of the flesh into a bowl, leaving a thin shell to maintain the structure.
Mash the scooped-out potato with the non-fat Greek yogurt, reduced-fat cheddar cheese, chopped chives, and a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir in the crispy bacon bits, reserving a few for garnish if desired.
Fill the potato shells with the creamy mixture, then place them back in the oven for an additional 10 minutes to meld the flavors and slightly brown the top.
Remove from the oven, garnish with the remaining bacon and a sprinkle of fresh chives, and serve warm.
