Double Baked Bacon + Egg Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 2 medium russet potatoes scrubbed
  • 2 Tbsps avocado oil or olive oil
  • 4 slices nitrate-free bacon
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 Tbsps sliced chives
  • sea salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Arrange your oven rack so that it's right in the center of the oven, then preheat your oven to 400 degrees f.
  • After thoroughly washing; pierce those potatoes with a fork a few times, then rub or brush with oil and rub it all over.
  • Place the potatoes directly onto the center oven rack.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes or just until potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife.
  • Remove from the oven and allow them to cool a bit.
  • Once ready to handle, slice each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh as shown. Reserve flesh for another use.
  • Place your potato boats into a baking dish and season them with sea salt and pepper.
  • Add one slice of bacon, shredded cheese, and gently crack an egg into each one as shown.
  • Return your potatoes to the hot oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or just until egg whites just set and yolks are still runny.
  • Garnish with fresh chopped chives and ground black pepper and enjoy!
