Oh my if you are needing a quick and easy side or even a meal consider making these Sliced Baked Potatoes with Bacon and Cheese. You can have these as a meal like we did or have them as a side to your meal. Also toss in any toppings or herbs that you are a fan of like broccoli or chili. These are so filling and so yummy. I can not believe I had never thought to slice up our potatoes and “stuff” them. It worked so well and evened up the flavor down into the potato.

My whole entire family will eat baked potatoes so when I made these I knew everyone would eat them up and would not be complaining for me to make them something separate. Baked potatoes are one of those items that just about everyone likes to have if they are stuffed with their favorite toppings. The only difficult part of the process with these potatoes is making sure not to cut all the way through your potato when you slice it. Also, when you are pulling the slices apart to stuff be sure to gently push a knife down in the slice to widen the slot for your topping.
