- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup green onions, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub and poke holes in russet potatoes. Rub with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake directly on the oven rack for 45-60 minutes until tender.
