			Old Ox Potato Skins

	4 or 5 baked potatoes
	Oil for deep frying
	Seasoned salt or salt and pepper
	1 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese
	5 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
	2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions

	Cut baked potatoes in halves lengthwise.  Scoop out
      Potato flesh, leaving about 1/4-inch shell.  Cook skins in
      hot deep oil heated to about 400 degrees, 3 to 5 minutes 
      until golden brown.  Drain on paper towels.  Season to
      taste with seasoned salt.  Fill each potato half with some
      of the Cheddar, bacon and green onions.  Brown under
      broiler until cheese melts, 2 to 3 minutes.  May be served
      with sour cream or any desired creamy dressing.  Makes
      8 to 10 servings. [unless you're really hungry...]
