• Feel free to customize the toppings by adding crispy bacon, chopped green onions, or sour cream.

Storage and Serving

• These baked potatoes are best served immediately while the cheese is still melted and gooey.
• If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
