Blue Ribbon Recipe

Elevate your side dish with these onion-stuffed baked potatoes. They have a creamy texture with plenty of butter and sour cream. We sauteed the onions and they add tons of flavor to the filling. Top off these twice-baked potatoes with extra cheese and bacon bits for a hearty side dish that will be a hit with your family.
