Triple-Onion Baked Potatoes image

I've been making twice-baked potatoes since I got married 19 years ago, and I'm constantly changing my recipe. This version features a rich filling of onions, bacon, sour cream and cheese. I like to serve these potatoes with baked ham. -Char Shanahan, Schererville, Indiana

I've tried many baked potato recipes, but this one is by far the best. The onions caramelize perfectly and add so much flavor to the potatoes.
