  • 1/2 cup sour cream, plus extra for serving
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
  2. Scrub the potatoes under running water and prick them several times with a fork.

  6. Once the potatoes are done, let them cool for 10-15 minutes before handling.
  7. Cut them in half and scoop out the fluffy potato pulp into a bowl.
  8. Mash the scooped potato with sour cream and milk until creamy.
  9. Stir in three-quarters of the taco mixture, reserving the rest for topping.
  10. Fold in three-quarters of the cheddar cheese and adjust seasoning to taste.
  11. Stuff the creamy mixture back into the potato skins.
  12. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top and return to the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes.
  13. Serve hot, topped with green onions, salsa, and additional sour cream.

Notes

For extra flavor, add hot sauce or jalapeños to the beef mixture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days, or freeze for up to a month.
