3 medium white potatoes, scrubbed
1 onion, diced
1/2 cup shredded cheese (I doubled that)
Salt and Pepper to taste
6 eggs
Preheat oven to 375*F. Prick the potatoes with a fork.
Bake the potatoes for 40-45 minutes, or until fork-tender.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large frying pan over a medium-low flame. Add the onions and saute until lightly golden. Remove from heat.
Cut the baked potatoes in half. Scoop out the insides, leaving a bit around the edges to prevent the peels from tearing.
Mash the potatoes well, then mix with the sauteed onions and shredded cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste. Scoop the mixture back into the potato halves.
Using a spoon, make an indentation in each of the potato halves.
Place the potatoes in a baking pan (A large-deep disposable pan worked for me). Pour an egg into each indentation and season with salt and pepper. Cover the pan with foil.
Bake at 375*F for 5 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the egg whites are set (it took the eggs twice as long, but it could be my oven...).
Sprinkle with additional shredded cheese before serving.
Yields: 6 servings (It yielded 2 servings for us, because 1/2 a potato would not be filling enough).
Note: One egg is often too much for each potato half. To avoid the overflowing, separate the egg and pour just a bit of egg white into the potato, then add the yolk (We didn't mind the overflowing).
Enjoy!
P.S. We found the bag of potatoes inside an empty box that was going to be sent out with the paper garbage!
I feel proud of my menu and that’s why I’m posting it, but if it bothers anyone, I’ll stop.
Sunday is my day off. Everybody eats, but I don’t really make it. I did make tuna and egg salad though, but that’s not really anything. We got a lot of bread because someone brought us from the kosher store in the city.
Monday lunch- vegetarian chili, homemade sesame french bread
Monday supper- honey sesame glazed chicken, green bean with mango salad, fried rice
Tuesday lunch- mushroom quiche, vegetable soup, and my daughter made corn bread yesterday
Tuesday supper- meatloaf, salad, chunky fried, sweet and regular
Wednesday lunch- baked fish fillets, salad, pasta
Wednesday supper- beer stew, rice, salad
Thursday lunch- corn empanadas and maybe cheese ones too, salad, onion soup
Thursday supper- milanesa, salad, apple kugel
My 17 and 20 ds said they really appreciate the food that me and my dd are making because they’re usually in a dorm .
You are so organized! It seems like you cook all day! Your bochurim are lucky that mom is providing full meals like in yeshiva! You are an inspiration!

I am organized, but my dd helps. I don’t cook all day, but what else is there to do? My youngest is 9 and one of my boys help him with his school work.
Bh my boys are also helpful, some when asked and some on their own.
