For extra flavor, try adding a clove of minced garlic to the potato mixture.
Experiment with different cheeses, such as Gruyere, pepper jack, or a blend of your favorites.
If you don't have green onions, chives make a lovely substitute.
For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and add sautéed mushrooms or other vegetables.
These potatoes can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving. Simply assemble the potatoes, cover, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add a few extra minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
