Ingredients

    4 large baking potatoes
    12 slices bacon
    8-10 fresh sage leaves, roughly torn
    3/4 cup golden raisins
    2 cups Brussels sprouts
    1/2 cup sour cream
    Kosher salt
    Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat over to 375° F. Wash and dry the potatoes, then prick them all over with a fork. Set on middle rack of oven and bake 1 hour, or until the potatoes feel soft when gently squeezed and the skin is crispy.

In a medium frying pan, over medium heat, cook the bacon until just crisp. Drain on paper towels and set aside. Discard all but 1/4 cup of the bacon fat and return the pan to the burner over medium heat. Add the sage and saute unil just sizzling. Add the raisings and Brussels sprouts and stir until warm.

Slice the top of each potato down the center lengthwise and squeeze gently to loosen the inside. Spoon some of the Brussels sprout mixture over each potato and lay 3 slices of the bacon on top. Add a dollop of the sour cream to each and sprinkle with the salt and pepper.

    I wonder how much you could kill those calories using turkey bacon and light sour cream because this recipe sounds really good, but the calories are really really high! I might run it through the calculator that way and see what I come up with! Thanks for submitting it! - 12/6/10

    sounds great, I will try it, but also packed with calories.... Lol
    Will have to wait until I get Brussel Sprout, not always easy here in Kenya.

    I would send some to you if I could, but being from Canada I don't think they would arrive as Brussel Sprouts LOL's.
