While potatoes are baking, start the filling. Chop bell pepper into fajita like strips and sauté with green onion and garlic. Cook until peppers are soft.

When beef is close to browned, drain liquid and then add ranch packet. Mix into beef and peppers well until beef is fully cooked. Set aside.

When potatoes are done, flip over and lightly mash them a little flatter as if you were about to load up a baked potato.
