Bacon Cheeseburger Potato Skillet Recipes

CHEESEBURGER BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat garlic and olive oil in skillet, add ground beef. Cook over medium heat until browned. Drain fat, add salt and pepper to taste. Scrub and prick potatoes. Bake at 400' for 1 hour or until done.
• When cool enough to handle, cut a thin slice from the top of each potato, scoop out the pulp, leaving a 1/4" shell. Place the pulp in a medium bowl and set aside.
• Place the potato shells on a baking pan.
• Add milk and butter to pulp and beat until smooth. Add 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese. Place into a storage bag, express air form bag and zip close. Cut a tip from the corner of the storage bag. Fill potatoes with cooked ground beef. Pipe potato mixture atop hamburger. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese.
• Return to oven and bake at 400' for 10 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted.

LOW CARB CHEESEBURGER SKILLET

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat before transferring the cooked bacon to plate, leaving the grease behind.
• Add the quartered radishes to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the radishes start to soften.
• Push the radishes to one side before adding the ground beef. Brown both sides of the ground beef before mincing and fully cooking.
• While the beef cooks, mix the ketchup, mustard, mayo, pickle juice, and Worcestershire sauce together in a small bowl. Once the beef is fully cooked, turn off the heat and add the sauce. Stir to fully incorporate.
• Top with shredded cheese and optional dill pickle chips. Bake in a 400ºF oven for about 5 minutes to fully melt the cheese. Top with the cooked and crumbled bacon, fresh parsley (optional), and salt and pepper to taste.

LOADED BACON-CHEESEBURGER-POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain, discard grease, and set aside.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a 3-quart saucepan, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove crisped bacon with a slotted spoon and set on paper towels to drain. Leave bacon grease in the saucepan.
• Sauté carrots, celery, and onion in the bacon grease until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Add broth, potatoes, and browned ground beef; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until potatoes are tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, wipe out the skillet you previously cooked the beef in. Melt butter in the skillet and whisk in flour; cook, stirring frequently, until bubbly, 3 to 5 minutes. Carefully whisk milk into flour-butter mixture until well combined and very smooth.
• Pour milk mixture into the soup, whisking to combine; bring to a boil and simmer for about 2 minutes. Add Cheddar cheese and stir until melted. Season with basil, parsley, salt, and pepper.
• Remove from heat. Ladle soup into bowls and sprinkle with bacon and additional shredded Cheddar cheese.
