Drizzle olive oil over baby red potatoes to coat them.

Sprinkle salt over the potatoes to season.

Add freshly ground black pepper to the potatoes and roll them around to coat.

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Place the potatoes in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes until fork tender.

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

Slice each potato in half and scoop out some of the inside to create a boat, leaving some potato for flavor.

Put the scooped-out potato into a bowl to save for later use.

Brown Italian sausage in a pan, using mild sausage for less heat, or substitute with chicken sausage or chorizo if desired.

Assemble the potato skins by adding a bit of the browned sausage into each potato boat.

Top the sausage with shredded Monterey Jack and Colby cheese.

Place the assembled potato skins back in the oven at 425°F (220°C) to melt the cheese.

Garnish the finished potato skins with sliced green onions.

Serve with a dollop of sour cream on the side.
