Ingredients List
- Recipe (for 4 people):
- 4 Baking Potatoes
- 8 Slices of bacon, sliced, diced or chopped
- Freshly ground pepper
Directions
1. You can garnish with sliced green onion, but I chose to serve it without
2. Pierce the potatoes with a fork a few times. Place in your microwave cooking on high for about 15-20 minutes (check regularly after 10 minutes).
3. Meanwhile, in a saucepan toss in bacon and pour just enough water to cover it. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon. As the water simmers, the bacon will begin to cook, then render, then crisp. Keep stirring until all bacon is crisp (about 5-6 minutes).
4. Toss the potatoes and bacon into a bowl (scraping every last flavour morsel out of the pan), mash together. Sprinkle with fresh pepper, serve, and enjoy!
