How to Make a Healthy Loaded Potato:

Preparation Instructions:

1: Prepare your Baked Potato - If you have the time nothing is better than an Oven Baked Potato which is how I prepared this Recipe. Take your Potato give it a quick rinse under water and pat dry.

Then pierce the potato with a fork in a couple of spots then brush your potato with Olive Oil and then sprinkle with salt. Place your Potato on a foil lined baking sheet and place in the oven at 425 Degrees for 40 minutes. It will be perfection.

If you are short on time you can pierce the potato with a fork in a couple of spots and then Microwave for 10 Minutes until soft.

2: Prepare your Poached Egg - Add 3 inches of water to a pot; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to Medium; carefully crack egg into boiling water (or crack egg into a bowl and slide into pot).

Reduce heat to medium low and poach egg for 3 minutes in simmering water; remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. If you have not mastered the art of poaching an egg just prepare sunny side up instead.

3: Break out your skillet; add olive oil heat on medium; add tomatoes and garlic; cook, stirring often until tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes.

4: Cut a slit in the top of your Baked Potato; push ends in to fluff up the skin. Top with tomato mixture; sprinkle with Basil & Chives. Top with egg and shredded parmesan cheese; season with salt and pepper.

5: Serve and enjoy!!

Expert Tips:

• Try using the microwave for an easier way to cook up your poached egg. Add 1 ½ cups of water, 2 teaspoons of distilled white vinegar , and a ¼ teaspoon of table salt to a 2 cup liquid measuring cup and microwave the mixture on high until it reaches a rolling boil. Stirring the mixture in a circular motion, slip in an egg and continue to gently stir fro 3 seconds.
• Cover the measuring cup with plastic wrap or a plate and let the gg stand for 4 minutes before removing with a slotted spoon.
