1½ hours | 1 hour prep
SERVES 8 -10 , 20 halves
- 5 russet potatoes
- 16 ounces sour cream
- 1 ounce ranch dip mix
- 2 cups cheddar cheese or monterey jack cheese, mix

- While they are baking make Ranch dip according to packet and put in fridge.
- Let potatoes cool to where you can handle them and cut in half.
- Scoop out middle of potatoes (I used a melon baller) and put in a bowl. Place hollow skins back on baking sheet to be filled.
- Take about 1/4 cup of the ranch dip ( more to taste but save some for dunking!) and mix into potatoes.
- Also add half of the bacon crumbles, a handful of cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Should resemble loaded mashed potatoes right now.
- Use Icecream scoop to load potato mixture back in to the skins.
- Top with remaining green onions, bacon and top with the cheese.
- Place back in the oven about 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Serve with the remaining Ranch dip.
