Twiced Baked Potato Skins
"My version of a potato skin. Perfect comfort food and great for a late night snack. Definitely not healthy, but I'm sure substitutions can be made such as margarine, low fat cheese, low fat or fat free sour cream and omitting the bacon."

I had some leftover baked potatoes, so I made this recipe with substitutions. I didn't have any milk so I used sour cream instead, used cajun seasoning instead of steak seasoning, because I didn't have any. These were great. Will make again.

I live with my husband in Joliet, IL. I'm a network administrator and also teach step aerobics. My hobby during warmer weather is my vegetable garden. I love to cook and make up interesting recipes. I've recently been put on a restricted diet. No dairy, gluten, wheat, oats, sugar. So, I'm looking for ways to spice up my meals. I cook non-restricted meals often as my husband can eat whatever he wants and I love to cook for him. But, once a week, I make him something "interesting" and healthy and he has to at least try it. So far, it's been a big hit.
