Baked Eggs in Potatoes - 4 servings

Preparation: 15 min. Cooking: 55 min. Total: 1 hrs. 10 mins.
  • 4 large baking potatoes
  • olive oil spray
  • 2 oz Gruyere cheese, grated (optional)
  • 2 oz Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 oz Swiss cheese, grated
  • 1 tsp caraway seed
  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 8 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
  • 2 oz mushrooms, finely diced
  • 8 eggs

Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray each potato with oil. Bake about 40 minutes or until potato yields to pressure. Combine grated cheeses with caraway seeds in a small bowl. Set aside. Melt butter in a large heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat. Sauté scallions, bell pepper and mushrooms 5-7 minutes until softened. Cut cooked potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out most of the flesh, leaving a .25 in. thick shell. Refrigerate potato flesh for another use, such as hash browns. Place potato shells on a baking sheet. Sprinkle 1-1/2 tsp cheese mixture into each shell. Break 1 egg into each shell. Bake about 8 minutes or until eggs are barely set. Remove from oven. Turn on broiler. Sprinkle each egg-potato with remaining cheese. Top with vegetable mixture. Broil until cheese just melts or about 1 minute.
