Baked Potato with Mozzarella and Egg
Ingredients
- 2 medium potatoes
- Shredded Kraft cheese, to taste
- Shredded mozzarella cheese, to taste
- 1 teaspoon margarine
- A pinch of black pepper
- A pinch of oregano
- 2 free-range eggs
Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Bake the Potatoes: Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake them in the preheated oven for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. To ensure even cooking, wrap the potatoes individually in aluminum foil before baking.
-
Prepare the Potato Filling: Once the potatoes are fully baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Carefully unwrap the foil and make a slit down the center of each potato. Scoop out the potato flesh into a mixing bowl, being careful not to tear the skins.
-
Mix the Filling: In the bowl with the potato flesh, add the margarine, shredded Kraft cheese, shredded mozzarella, black pepper, and oregano. Mash and mix the ingredients together until well combined and creamy.
-
Stuff the Potatoes: Spoon the prepared potato mixture back into the potato skins, filling them generously.
-
Add the Egg: Make a small well in the center of each stuffed potato and crack an egg into it. Season with a bit more black pepper and oregano to taste.
-
Top with Cheese: Sprinkle additional shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the stuffed potatoes.
-
Bake Again: Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
-
Bonus Tip: If you have any leftover filling, you can spoon it into a small baking dish or cup, add an egg on top, and bake it alongside the stuffed potatoes for a delicious extra treat.
Enjoy your hearty and delicious baked potato dish, perfect for a comforting meal!
