Stuffed Baked Potatoes
But before we go, I do have one more awesome bacon recipe to share with you – these Bacon & Egg Stuffed Potatoes! Be sure to read all the way to the end of this post to see what my friends made for the last Bacon Month post!
My family loves these Bacon & Egg Stuffed Baked Potatoes for Sunday brunch. On a rare occasion, we even have them for dinner.
While the rest of the family likes just the regular cracked egg in their potato, I like mine scrambled so I give mine a quick whisk before pouring it into the potato shell. You can do whatever you and your family prefer – it’s wonderful either way!
If you like your egg yolk runny, make sure to use the shorter cooking time … I don’t do runny eggs at all – ever – which is why I’ll stick to the scrambled version! I also load mine up with extra cheese and bacon and a dollop of sour cream! So, so good! My older boys enjoy theirs with salsa. Whatever floats your boat is what I say.
