Hello from Portugal!!!! I made these lovely stuffed baked potatoes over the weekened, and they were a total hit with my family! Everyone wanteds seconds(good thing I made extras. lol..lol.) The only change I made was add in chopped chives as I didn't have any green onion at hand and about a tsp of chopped parsley, as I love parsley, it was perfect!!!! Thank you so much Lazyme for posting this fantastic receipe!!

    Yummy stuffed potato!! I loved the addition of the bacon and the bacon drippings in place of butter!! I also enjoyed not having to get the mixer out and dirty!! I made 1/2 of the recipe for the two of us. The only thing I might change next time is to add more cheese, love cheese!!! I served this with Grilled Flank Steak and green beans for a delicious meal!! Thanks Lazyme for sharing this great recipe.

    I used real bacon bits in the jar for this recipe and it worked out great and saves you the time of cooking the bacon. We really enjoyed these!

    Well I'm never likely to be in New Orleans to try these there, but WOW, these were so delicious! Just wonderful for a weekend brunch. I made them last night, so simply putting them into the oven couldn't have made for an easier more leisurely brunch. I love paprika, so added some in with the potato mixture in step 3, as well as sprinkling some on top. I used probably only a 1/4 teaspoon of salt and I used a low-fat sour cream, which I always find makes no appreciable difference to any dish that calls for sour cream. I also added a pinch of nutmeg in step 3. Thanks so much, lazyme, for sharing this wonderful lazy weekend recipe! Made for Zaar Stars Tag, these will certainly be starring for us again and again!
