      I love potato skins, but I've only ever had them at a restaurant. They would definitely be a lot cheaper to make at home, but we never buy bacon, for health reasons. I wonder if they'd be boring without it?

        To replace the bacon, you can add turkey bacon, vegan bacon, or just some cooked seasoned spinach on top to give it flavor.

      Potatoes skins always remind me of TGIFridays restaurant. Nice that it's so easy to do at home too
