I have to follow a gluten and dairy free diet so sometimes dinner options feel limited. I followed this recipe almost exactly (I left out the cheese) and it turned out delicious! The sweet potatoes balance out the heat of the chorizo perfectly. I did have to cook the egg for longer than the recommended time but other than that- I didn't need to adjust anything. Thanks for the easy and flavorful recipe! I'll definitely make this again:)
Fan-freaking-tastic! I wish they didn't take so long to make. But they are worth the wait! I took the sweet potato that I scooped out of the boats and mashed it with some butter, brown sugar, and pumpkin spice and served it along with the boats as a nice sweet accompaniment. Delicious and filling breakfast.
These are pretty decent. I think I'll leave the egg out of mine next time though. That baked egg yolk just really kind of creeped me out. I had to use a can of green chilies instead of a poblano pepper because I don't even know what a poblano pepper is let alone where to get one. Still.....it's a good recipe and not too much trouble. We had green salad and crescent rolls alongside.
I made a couple changes just because I was not sure how hot the chorizo would be. I used half of the medium chili because it looked like the right amount in comparison to the other ingredients and I used a Mexican blend of shredded cheese in place of the pepper jack. We both like it a lot and I will definitely be making this again. My eggs took about 25 minutes to cook so you might need more time than anticipated.
I used left over taco meat instead of chorizo. Tasted good!
It was difficult for me to find sweet potatoes that were similar in size at the grocery store so I decided to cook various sized potatoes and mash them into individual ramekins. This recipe might be my new obsession. I've cooked it on three separate occasions for different groups of people and my friends are still talking about it.
I really really loved it. I did changed the recipe a little bit: I used a regular red bell pepper instead of the hot pepper and I used pepperonni instead of the chorizo because it's cheaper. I also cut the potatoes in halves and put an egg in just one half of each potato. It turned out awesome! My bf is very picky about food and he had a second plate. My daughter however didn't like the peel of the potato so I'd recommend to take it off for your toddlers before chopping everything in small pieces. I will do that again for sure with guests.
This dish is good for breakfast or dinner. It's not spicy even though it sounds like it should be....but you can spice it up if you like by putting a little cayenne in the chorizo while it cooks. It's a big recipe that makes good leftovers!
I tried to make this but after baking the potatos the first time they fell apart as I tried to slice them. Maybe I didn't let them cool enough? I don't know. But the skin was not strong enough to be a boat. The whole thing fell apart like wet paper. So I ended up using the ingredients and making the same thing but as a mashed potato in a bowl. It tasted good. Just disappointed it fell apart
