Ingredients  

  • 6 medium potatoes scrubbed
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 8 ounce packages cream cheese room temperature
  • 4 oz sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese divided
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese divided
  • 4 oz diced jalapenos canned
  • 12 slices bacon cooked and crumbled

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Make sure the potatoes have been sufficiently scrubbed, poke holes into the potatoes with a fork and put on a cookie sheet to bake for 45-60 minutes (until skin is crispy). Cool completely.
  • Combine cream cheese, garlic powder and sour cream with a hand mixer until fluffy. Stir in the jalapenos, half of the monterey jack and half of the pepper jack cheeses and half of the crumbled bacon.  Mix well.
  • Cut potatoes in half lengthwise and, using a spoon, scoop out some of the flesh leaving a potato "boat".
  • Brush skins with olive oil and bake 15 minutes or until crisp.
  • Divide jalapeno mixture over the skins and top with remaining cheeses and bacon. 
  • Bake an additional 10-15 minutes or until crisp.
