Ingredients
Serves 4
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
- 1/4 cup milk
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 4 slices bacon, cooked, crumbled

Prick potatoes with a knife. Microwave potatoes on HIGH for 18 minutes, or until a knife slips in easily, rotating every 6 minutes. Let cool. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2
Cut a 1/2-inch slice lengthwise from the top of each potato and discard. Scoop the potato flesh into a medium bowl, leaving a 1/2-inch shell intact. Mash potato flesh with a fork.

Add sour cream, blue cheese, milk, butter, salt, pepper and bacon to bowl. Mix well.

When you're pressed for time, you can simply serve the filling as mashed potatoes and skip the stuffing and baking stages.

Steaks are a pricey entrée, but most supermarkets will give you a discount if you purchase them on the last sale date stamped on the package. Look for the special section in the meat department.
