Food food fooood! Long time no cook :(

It's only been me, so I haven't really been cooking. Plus, I'm trying to watch my weight, so salads and coffee is pretty much the extent of my diet.

Here's a little highlight of my food life...



I apologize for the poor quality photo. My camera is on vacation, so...welcome to cellphone camera!!
This recipe can't be any simpler.

Pooootatooo Skiinnn
- 1 slice of bacon
- 1 Potato
- Shredded Cheese (You can really use any time, probably best with cheddar. I used 4 Cheese Mexican Mix)
- Jalapeno
- Green Onion
- Sour Cream
- Olive Oil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Rub olive oil all over the potato. Put it in the microwave on high for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, fry the bacon until brown. Remove it and put it on a paper towel to absorb the extra oil.

When the potato is done, cut the potato in half (longways). Scoop out the insides and put it in a bowl. The potato should look like a tiny bowl. Put some cheese and crushed bacon into the bottom, and refill the potato bowl with its insides. Layer the top with desired amount of cheese, jalapeno, and green onion. I like LOTS of everything. Do the same with the other half.

Put the potato into the oven. It'll be ready when the cheese starts to brown.

Confession: I loooove Sandra Lee's Semi-Homemade cooking show. It's delicious, but most importantly, conveniently priced well. You don't have to go out to buy all the ingredients, yet the recipe gives you flexibility. If you want to make it healthier, you can. It's not like me grabbing a box of mac and cheese. Let the creativity in you come outtt!!! 


We had a long weekend today...I hope you enjoyed your Monday :)
