Loaded Twice Baked Potatoes

4-5 Baked Potatoes
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup butter
1/4 -1/2 cup bacon bits
1-1 1/2 cups cheese (I use Colby Jack)
splash of milk (if needed)
1/2 teaspoon garlic
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon parsley

Scrub 4-5 potatoes in warm water. Dry. Use a fork to puncture potatoes or you favorite method. Bake at 425 degrees for 40-60 minutes. Let potatoes cool for about 10 minutes. Cut in half length wise and scoop out the inside into a large mixing bowel. Place potato skin shells in a baking dish. Mash potatoes using your favorite method. Mix in sour cream, butter, bacon, cheese (leave out a little to sprinkle on top if you like),garlic, onion powder, and parsley. Mixture should have similar consistency to regular mashed potatoes. Add a splash of milk if too dry.  Spoon loaded potatoes back in to potatoes skin shells. Return to 425 degree oven for 20-25 minutes. If desired place cheese on potatoes and bake for a few more minutes, until melted.

Enjoy!
