Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Scrub potatoes, pierce several times with a fork, and place on microwave-safe plate. Cook potatoes on High in microwave 5 minutes, turn over and cook until soft, about 5 minutes more. Scoop potato flesh into a bowl, reserve potato skins.

  3. Cook and stir cabbage, onion, and bacon in a skillet over medium heat until vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Stir milk, butter, pepper, and salt into cabbage mixture, stir in potato flesh and 1/2 cup of Cheddar cheese. Cook and stir cabbage mixture, breaking up potato and mashing lightly, until milk is absorbed, about 5 minutes.

  4. Remove pan from heat, pile potato mixture into potato skins and place stuffed potatoes in a baking dish. Sprinkle potatoes with remaining Cheddar cheese.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbly and potatoes are heated through, about 25 minutes.
