Time 1h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large baking potatoes (8 to 10 oz each)
4 slices bacon
2/3 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola or Roquefort cheese
4 medium green onions, sliced (1/4 cup)
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Gently scrub potatoes, but do not peel. Pierce potatoes several times with fork. Place on oven rack. Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes or until tender when pierced in center with fork. Let stand until cool enough to handle.
  • Meanwhile, in 12-inch skillet, cook bacon over medium heat 5 to 6 minutes, turning occasionally, until crisp; drain on paper towel.
  • Cut each potato lengthwise in half; scoop out inside, leaving a thin shell. In medium bowl, mash potatoes, milk and butter with potato masher or electric mixer on low speed until no lumps remain (amount of milk needed will vary depending upon type of potato used). Stir in cheese, green onions and salt. Fill potato shells with mashed potato mixture. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Crumble bacon onto potatoes.
  • Bake about 20 minutes or until hot. Garnish with additional sliced green onion tops if desired.

These potatoes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more seasoning next time, such as garlic powder or onion powder.

I love twice-baked potatoes, and this recipe is one of my favorites. The Gorgonzola and bacon add so much flavor, and the crispy parmesan crust is the perfect finishing touch. I always get rave reviews when I make this dish.

These potatoes were delicious, but they were a bit more work than I expected. I had to peel and boil the potatoes, then mash them and mix in all the other ingredients. It was worth it in the end, but I would recommend setting aside some time to make

I'm not a huge fan of Gorgonzola, but I thought I would give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The Gorgonzola was not overpowering, and it paired well with the bacon and potatoes. I would definitely make this dish again.

I loved the idea of this recipe, but I found that the potatoes were a bit dry. I think I would add a little bit of milk or cream to the potato mixture next time.

These potatoes were easy to make and very tasty. I used a sharp cheddar cheese instead of Gorgonzola, and they were still delicious. I will definitely be making them again.

I had some trouble getting the potatoes to crisp up. I ended up baking them for an extra 10 minutes, but they still weren't as crispy as I would have liked. Other than that, they were delicious.

These potatoes were a bit too rich for my taste. The Gorgonzola was very strong, and the bacon added even more saltiness. I think I would have preferred a milder cheese, such as mozzarella or cheddar.

I'm not usually a fan of blue cheese, but the Gorgonzola in this dish was surprisingly mild and creamy. It paired perfectly with the salty bacon and fluffy potatoes. I'll definitely be adding this recipe to my regular rotation.
