Twice Baked Potatoes

This is one of the not-exact-measurement recipes. :) But it's really easy so anyone can figure it out pretty fast. If I can do it, you can do it. ;)

Ingredients
Red potatoes (creamier taste) or Regular potatoes (starchier taste)
Sour cream and/or cream cheese
Cheddar cheese
Bacon
Seasonings: oregano, garlic salt, pepper, etc.

Directions
-Bake potatoes in oven at approx. 400 degrees for 45 mins-1 hour (like regular baked potatoes).  *Tip for a delicious skin:  After poking potato w/ fork, rub each potato with vegetable oil and wrap in tin foil.
-Cook bacon in frying pan, cut into tiny pieces and set aside.
-Take potatoes out of oven and cut in halves. Spoon out the insides leaving the skins as a shell. Set aside shells.
-Combine potato insides with sour cream, butter, and/or cream cheese (whatever amount that you prefer). Mix as if making mashed potatoes. (Can add a little milk to make it creamier if desired.)
-Add graded cheese and bacon bits. Mix altogether.
-Spoon in some of the bacon grease (optional, but adds a lot of the flavor).
-Add mixture back into the skins.
-Spray and place in a Pyrex pan.
-Put back in the oven for about 30 mins or until golden brown on top.

Ta da! Done. Enjoy with your favorite vegetable side dish!
