What can I substitute for bacon in this recipe?

You can use turkey bacon, pancetta, or even sautéed mushrooms for a vegetarian option.

How do I know when the stuffed potatoes are done?

Can I add other ingredients to the stuffing?

Absolutely! Feel free to add ingredients like sour cream, different cheeses, or vegetables to customize your stuffed potatoes.
