Baked Potato Skins

Bake potatoes at 400° for 1 hour or until tender.

Cool slightly; cut in half lengthwise and scoop out pulp, leaving 1/4-inch of pulp still attached to skin.

(The potato pulp you remove can be refrigerated for use later.) Cut skins into strips or halves; brush skin sides with melted butter and place on a baking sheet.

Sprinkle pulp sides with salt and paprika; cover with the green onions, bacon, ham or shrimp and chopped peppers. Top with cheese.

Bake at 450° until cheese is melted and skins are crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes.

Garnish each skin with a dollop of sour cream.

Serve immediately.
