Scallion and Bacon Twice-Baked Potatoes

This picture does no justice.
These have become a must-have at summer BBQs.

Ingredients:
4 large Idaho potatoes
1 cup fat-free sour cream
3/4 cup shredded fat-free cheddar cheese
1/8 tsp. salt, or more to taste
1/8 tsp. black pepper, or more to taste
3 slices turkey bacon (although I do at least 8 :) cooked and then chopped into bits
3 medium scallions chopped

* You can make it faster by cooking the potatoes in the microwave for 8 minutes on each side, but make sure to bake them in the oven for the overall taste.

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Pierce potatoes with a fork and bake in oven until soft- about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and increase the temperature to 450 F.

Allow potatoes to cool slightly. When cool enough to handle, slice potatoes lengthwise down the center. Scoop out potato flesh and place it in a medium bowl; reserve hollowed out potato skins.

Add sour cream and cheese to potato flesh and season liberally with salt and pepper; add bacon. Using a fork mash potato mixture until creamy and bacon is distributed throughout. Add scallions and mix with fork until just combined.

Cut the potato 1/2 into 1/4 and place on a cookie sheet. Scoop potato mixture back into the potato skins. Cook until heated through and cheese is melted- about 8 minutes.
