Here's another inspiring egg preparation for you this morning – eggs baked in potato skins! That sounds like the perfect thing right about now, and it definitely falls into the category of "why didn't we think of that?"
Over at the blog Kate in the Kitchen, Kate says this is her new favorite breakfast, and it's easy to see why. These baked eggs would be great with any number of toppings or all on their own with a little salt and pepper. And how perfect would they be for a brunch party?
Kate offers some detailed instructions on how to get the potato skins and eggs just right. You could also bake the potatoes and prep the skins the night before so all that's left to do for breakfast is fill them with eggs and pop them in the oven.
We can't wait to try this!

Those look amazing! I think the links to the blog and Flickr photo are missing though.
@STLcolleen: Thanks, links are fixed now.
We had nests of mashed potatoes with eggs baked in the middle for after-Thanksgiving breakfast! The eggs got pretty rubbery on top, but overall it was delicious.
these look delicious.... i might have to make these for dinner tonight!
HATE eggs, but it looks REALLY GOOD... for someone who likes them.
I never would have thought of this idea.
What a yummy idea! Definitely will make it.
What a great idea! I'd love to try it.
Oh that's brilliant, I love it! And I have two big sacks of potatoes awaiting my attention too.
That's an awesome shot!! And, a brilliant idea!!
Yum. When I lived in the UK way back in the early 80s we ate our big meal at lunch--people I was living with worked at home--and we had a small supper around 8. We would usually eat soup and some bread & pate/cheese, but occasionally we had baked potatoes with lambs' kidneys in them. This is a similar idea and looks equally delicious.
Oh my goodness...THIS looks delicious! What a wonderful way to enjoy two of my favorite things, eggs and potatoes!
I just finished trying them. Verdict: Amazing! I think this is my new favorite way to eat eggs. I did cheat a little, though. I sliced the potatoes in half, raw, and scooped them out before baking them. They baked faster and I'll use the scoopings to thicken my next batch of stew.
