Hi...
We had this for dinner last night and it was really good...I used sweet potatoes instead of white potatoes. I also served a green salad with this.
.....you get to have your meat and potatoes all in one place!
Enjoy!

SERVINGS: 4
CATEGORY: Main Dish
METHOD: Baked
TIME: Prep: 1 hour 20 min. + cooling Bake: 20 min.
Ingredients:
4 large baking potatoes (8 to 10 ounces each)
2 tablespoons butter
1-1/4 teaspoons salt, divided
Dash pepper
1/4 to 1/3 cup milk
1 pound ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

Wash potato skins and prick with a fork. Bake at 400° for 60-70 minutes or until tender; cool. Cut a thin slice off the top of each potato. Carefully scoop out the pulp, leaving a 1/4-in. shell. In a large bowl, mash the pulp with butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper and milk; set aside.
