You can try mashed sweet potatoes as well, but most kids won't eat them. Immediately pour on top of mashed potatoes. Use purple, red, or new potatoes with their skins on. Drop mounds of mashed potatoes onto greased cookie sheet, making a well in each mound. Crack an egg into the well of each potato mound and bake.
Full recipe is here.
Have the kids help you mash the potatoes roughly, and fold in a bit of butter, milk, salt and pepper. Do NOT mash until smooth. Panfry 4 strips bacon until crisp. Remove from the pan and add 1 diced onion, cooking until translucent. Crumble the bacon into the onion.
