This hack transforms a single potato into a delicious breakfast sandwich, using a hasselback-style preparation for crispy potato halves that cradle savory fillings.
1. Cut the ends off a potato.
2. Lay down two skewers on a flat surface.
3. Thinly slice the potato vertically using the skewers to prevent it from cutting all the way through.
4. Flip over the potato and cut it diagonally.
5. Carefully fit a skewer into the potato's center.
6. Combine 1 tablespoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, and 1 teaspoon of onion salt in a bowl.
7. Combine with about 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
8. Coat the potato in the seasoning mixture.
9. Bake the potato in a 400 degree F (200 C) oven for about 15 minutes.
10. Flip and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
11. Place one potato half on a cutting board, cover in some shredded cheese.
12. Add some bacon, followed by some soft scrambled eggs, followed by some more shredded cheese.
13. Add the other potato half on top to complete the sandwich.
