Twice Baked Potatoes - cooking recipe

Ingredients

5 large potatoes, scrubbed and baked
1 c. sour cream
3 Tbsp. green onions or chives, minced
4 strips bacon, fried and crumbled
1 c. Cheddar cheese, grated
1 egg, beaten
1/2 c. mushrooms, sliced and sauteed in butter
1 c. half and half
1/2 tsp. parsley
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. garlic salt
1/3 c. butter

Preparation

Bake potatoes for one hour at 350\u00b0 or until tender in center. Cut in half lengthwise.
Scoop out potato carefully as to not tear skins.
Mash potatoes with mixer; add half and half and continue to beat until smooth.
Add all other ingredients and mix well. Mixture should be somewhat softer than regular mashed potatoes to prevent drying out when baking again.
Fill skin shells with mashed potato mixture and arrange on cookie sheet.
Top each with extra grated cheese.
Bake at 350\u00b0 for 20 minutes.
Great with steaks.
Serves 8 to 10.
