Mini Red Potato Bites

Your friends and family will love these mini potato bites.  I serve them with sour cream and "hot salsa".  People that know me best wouldn't be surprised that I add hot salsa!
 

Recipe

1½ Pounds red potatoes
1 Cup shredded cheddar cheese
½ Cup mayonnaise
½ Cup sliced green onions
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
10 Slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
Sour cream, optional

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 

On a large baking sheet place potatoes and bake 35 minutes or until tender. Let stand until cool enough to handle.  Cut each potato in half, then cut a thin slice from bottom of each potato half to allow them to sit flat.  With a small spoon, scoop pulp from potatoes leaving a ¼-inch shell. 

Place the pulp in a bowl and stir in the remaining ingredients.  Spoon or pipe potato filling into the potato shells.  Arrange filled shells on baking sheet and broil 3 minutes or until golden and heated through.  Serve with sour cream.
