Double Baked BIG Potatoes

First: Wash four large baking potatoes. Place them onto a tray. Drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Bake at 350ºF for 60 minutes.

Once you take the potatoes out of the oven, let cool for a couple minutes then cut a slit down the center of each potato, squeeze the sides inward and gently scoop out the potato (as much as you can) and place the potato into a bowl along with: 1/4 cup sour cream, 1 1/2 cups of old cheddar cheese, 1 tsp cumin, 2 cloves of garlic minced, 1 tbsp Dijon or honey Dijon mustard, chopped chives or green onion, and either 6-8 strips of bacon (fried and chopped into bits) or one Spicy Sausage/ Spicy Chorizo Sausage squeezed out of it's casing and cooked in a heated pan and chopped up with a wooden spoon.. add it to the bowl with some salt and pepper and a bit of whatever hot sauce or a charred jalapeno pepper (diced and seeded). Mix all the ingredients until smooth and creamy add more sour cream if you need to. And shove it back into the potato skins gently. Then sprinkle the tops with a bit more cheese and put them back into the oven for about 10 more minutes. Until the cheese on top is golden and bubbly.
