Ingredients:
Two 10-oz. russet potatoes
1/8 tsp. salt, or more to taste
1/8 tsp. black pepper, or more to taste
1 cup (about 8 large) egg whites or liquid egg substitute
1/4 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
Pierce potatoes several times with a fork. Microwave for 6 minutes, or until soft.
Slice potatoes in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the pulp, leaving about 1/4 inch inside the skin. Reserve potato pulp for another use.
Place potato skins on the baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
Bake until crispy, about 18 minutes.
Meanwhile, spray a microwave-safe bowl with nonstick spray. Add egg whites/substitute, cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well. Microwave for 1 1/2 minutes. Gently stir. Microwave for 1 1/2 more minutes, or until fully cooked.
Stir eggs to scramble. Distribute the egg scramble among the potato skins.
Top with bacon.
