Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly.

Pierce each potato several times with a fork.

Rub the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.

Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 45-60 minutes until tender.

Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly.

Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides into a mixing bowl.

Add butter, sour cream, milk, cream cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to the potato insides.

Mash the mixture until smooth and creamy.

Fold in shredded cheese, chopped green onions, and cooked bacon.

Spoon the filling back into the potato skins, mounding it slightly.

Top with additional cheese and chopped parsley if desired.

Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until heated through and cheese is melted.

Serve warm, garnished with extra green onions.
