Baked potatoes with bacon and fraiche mix. So good and so easy to make! Comfort food doesn’t come in a finer form than a baked potato.
Baked potatoes are good to go when a fork pierces through them easily. They should be tender and fluffy once they’re done. If you bake them too long, they’ll get dry, so check them at the 50 minute mark just in case your oven runs a little hotter.
And as you noticed, I didn’t use any cheese in this recipe, there’s a zillion variants to make the toppings. The best thing about this recipe is that it’s wonderfully flexible. The amounts shown are a guideline, but really it’s up to your own imagination and taste.
A suggestions for salad, if I may. The baked potatoes mixed very well with the mixed cabbage salad.
