Ingredients
4 medium baked potatoes 2 green onions, green and white parts chopped4 large eggs4 egg whites1/4 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese 1/4 cup salsaOptional toppings: Greek yogurtCrumbled baconSauteed peppersSteamed, chopped spinach
Directions
Carefully slice the tops off four baked potatoes. Scoop out most of the insides and set aside. Reheat the potatoes in the microwave or oven.
Coat a medium nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Add the green onions and cook for two minutes, until they start to soften. Add the reserved potato to the skillet and stir to combine with the onions.
Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs and egg whites in a medium bowl.
Pour into the skillet and cook, stirring often with a spatula, until the eggs are just set.
Stir in the cheese and remove from heat.
Place each potato on a plate and evenly divide the eggs among them. Top with one tablespoon salsa and serve immediately.

    My husband loves potatoes and eggs and this is a great recipe to add to my breakfast collection. Thank you. I had all of the ingredients on hand and it was a success. - 6/23/13

    Safety warning! This sounds yummy and I will try it, however please, please, please... If you are saving baked potatoes that have been wrapped in foil, unwrap them before cooling. Botulism is a danger in stored unwrapped baked potatoes. Do your own quick research. Be safe. - 6/24/13

    Tasty, filling &easy, BUT calorie count is too low - 1/2 of lg naked baked russet potato=139 calories. Suggsted toppings NOT healthy. Better when potatoes are cooked in a tiny amount of butter/olive oil until a bit brown & crusty. I topped mine with a chopped roma tomato/picodegallo - 1/22/14

    This was a decent breakfast. skipped the eg white and just used the one egg. I don't like those egg white textures. Nuked the potato, and while it was cooking, I fixed the rest of it. It was ready super quick. next time, I'll add more onion. - 4/13/18

    The numbers are way off. I figured on individual ingredients. It wasn't bad, but making with a medium potato it's way to much carbs for for one setting. - 1/14/18

    Sounds really delicious - I will have to try this. In fact, I think I'd get extra potatoes cooked the night before, just so I could do this. - 6/23/13
