• Meanwhile, place cauliflower in microwave safe bowl, and microwave, 5 to 8 minutes or until tender.
• Cut each potato lengthwise in half; scoop out potatoes leaving a thin shell. Place insides from 2 potatoes in bowl of food processor or blender. Place remaining 2 potato insides aside for another use (tomorrow's dinner!) Mix in cauliflower melted butter, milk, sour cream and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Blend until smooth.
• Stir in 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese and black pepper to taste. Spoon filling back into the potato skins and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese.

• Smash the potatoes into the butter, bacon and sour cream. Add the cheese, milk, seasoned salt, green onions and black pepper to taste and mix together well. (IMPORTANT: If you plan to freeze the twice-baked potatoes, do NOT add the green onions.)
• Fill the potato shells with the filling. I like to fill the shells so they look abundant and heaping. Top each potato with a little more grated cheese and pop 'em in the oven until the potato is warmed through, 15 to 20 minutes.
