Ingredients to make Potatoes stuffed with egg and bacon:

- 4 slices of bacon
- 4 small-medium eggs

How to make Bacon and Egg Stuffed Potatoes:
- In order to prepare stuffed potatoes we must review all the ingredients and make sure that nothing is missing.
- If you plan to serve this dish as a starter like I did, I recommend opting for potatoes and small eggs.
- While if you want to take advantage of it for a main dish, it is better to use a medium size.
- Wash the potatoes and place them in a saucepan or pot with water and a little salt.
- We put them on the fire and let them cook for approximately 20 minutes, over medium heat.
- To check that the potatoes are ready, prick them with a fork, you should feel them soft.
- When they are ready, we remove them from the saucepan and put them under cold water to stop the cooking. Then, we follow the following steps:
- Cut each potato in half lengthwise.
- With the help of a spoon, we empty the interiorof each half, being careful not to break the skin.
- Let’s start stuffing the potatoes! To do this, we season the inside of each half with a little salt and pepper to taste.
- Then, we add grated cheese also to taste and half a slice of bacon cut into strips or small squares.
- Add the egg over the grated cheese and bacon.
- Later, we add more cheese and chopped bacon and finish the filling with a little parsley sprinkled on top or any other aromatic spice that we like.
- Tip: Preheat the oven to 200ºC.
- Wrap each half with aluminum foil, place them all on a baking tray and bake them for 15-20 minutes, or until when inserting a fork inside each potato we observe that the egg is well cooked.
