Fully Loaded Hasselback Potatoes

Servings: 4

Ingredients

• 4 small baking potatoes
• 4 tablespoons butter, sliced thinly
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
• 4 strips bacon
• 1 cup cheddar, shredded
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup green onions, sliced

Instructions

1. Slice the potatoes thinly (~1/8 inch) without cutting all the way through.
2. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet, stuff the sliced butter and garlic in between a few of the cuts in the potatoes and season with salt and pepper.
3. Roast in a preheated 400F oven until crispy on the top and tender in the middle, about 1 hour.
4. Meanwhile cook the bacon until crispy and crumble it.
5. Sprinkle the potatoes with the cheese and bacon and return to the oven until the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes.
6. Serve topped with sour cream, and green onions.

Tip: Place a wooden spoon or something similar at the base of the potato to help prevent cutting all the way through.
