Cheesy Bacon Microwave Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Layer the potatoes, onion, cheese, salt and pepper into a microwave safe casserole dish. Once finished layering, place 1 teaspoon of margarine on the top of the uppermost layer. Cover and cook in the microwave oven on HIGH for 10 minutes.
• Remove the dish from the microwave and stir before cooking for another 10 minutes or until done. Stir well and serve.

Steps:

• In 10-inch skillet, cook bacon over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until bacon is crisp; drain on paper towels.
• Meanwhile, gently scrub potatoes, but do not peel. Pierce potatoes to allow steam to escape. Place on microwavable paper towels. Arrange in spoke pattern with narrow ends in center. Microwave 12 to 14 minutes, turning once, until tender. Cover; let stand 5 minutes.
• When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut lengthwise in halves; carefully scoop out pulp, leaving ¼-inch shells. Save potato pulp for another use.
• In small bowl, mix oil, salt, garlic powder, paprika, cheese and pepper. Brush mixture over skins.
• In deep fryer or 3-quart heavy saucepan, heat oil to 365°F. Fry in batches for 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels. (Make Ahead tip: Potatoes can be prepared up to this point and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before continuing to step 6.)
• One hour before serving allow potatoes to come to room temperature. Heat oven to 450° F. Lightly spray 13x9-inch (3 quart) glass baking dish. Place potato skins, skin side up, in baking dish. Bake 8 minutes. Turn potato skins over and fill with cheese and bacon.
• Bake 7 to 8 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top with sour cream and green onions.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450ºF.
• Cut thin lengthwise slice off bottom of each potato; discard. Place 2 wooden spoons on opposite long sides of 1 potato on cutting board. Cut potato crosswise into 24 thin slices, stopping when knife hits spoons. Repeat with remaining potatoes.
• Microwave on HIGH 12 to 14 min. or until potatoes are almost tender. Place in foil-lined 13x9-inch pan; brush evenly with 3 Tbsp. dressing. Bake 15 min. or until potatoes are tender. Remove from oven. Heat broiler.
• Insert bacon pieces alternately with cheese slices between potato slices. Combine Parmesan and chives; sprinkle over potatoes. Drizzle with remaining dressing.
• Broil, 4 inches from heat, 2 to 3 min. or until topping is lightly browned. Cut in half.

Steps:

• Clean un-peeled potatoes under water to remove any dirt.
• Poke them all over with a fork to vent while cooking.
• Rub vegetable oil on potatoes and season with salt.
• Microwave for 5 minutes, turn potatoes over, and microwave for an additional 5 minutes.
• While potatoes are cooking, cut across bacon and then lengthwise to create small bits. ( I use frozen bacon) Cook in a skillet until crispy and set aside.
• Allow the potatoes to cool until you can handle them.
• Make a slice lengthwise on each potato and use a fork to mash the insides. ( Doesn't have to be perfect).
• Top potatoes with shredded cheddar cheese and put back in the microwave for 1 minute or until cheese is melted.
• Top with bacon bits.

Steps:

• Line a large mug with a few sheets of paper towel. Lay the bacon in the mug, cover with another piece of paper towel and microwave on high power for 1 minute. Using the edges of the paper towel, lift the bacon from the mug and set aside.
• Scoop the hash browns into the mug, pressing them down and up the sides to form a well. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high power for 1 minute.
• Add the eggs, milk and a pinch of salt and pepper to the mug and whisk together, leaving the hash browns in place. Tear the bacon and cheese into bite-size pieces and drop them into the egg mixture. Microwave on high power for 2 minutes, pausing after 1 minute to give the mixture a quick stir.
