Creating the Loaded Potato Taco Bowl is easy when you follow these simple steps:

7. Shred Cheese: While the meat cooks, shred cheese and prepare other toppings like sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
8. Assemble Bowls: Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven. Cut each potato in half and fluff the insides with a fork.
9. Add Toppings: Start by layering seasoned meat on the fluffy potato. Then, add shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa on top.
