Ingredients

  • 1 sweet onion sliced

  • 1 sweet potato cubed small (can also use sweet potato)
  • 1 bell pepper cup into strips
  • 1 teaspoon Montreal Steak Spice seasoning or seasoning of choice
  • 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil

  • Sea Salt and Black Pepper

Instructions

Oven Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a large bowl, add the onion, white potatoes, sweet potatoes, bell pepper, steak spice, and olive oil.  Toss well to combine and ensure the veggies get coated with the seasoning.
  • Form 2 foil packets with heavy duty foil - and divide the veggies.  Seal closed.  Cook for 30 minutes and carefully remove from stove and open foil packets.
  • Test potatoes with the fork to see if they are tender- and if not, cook for an additional 5-10 minutes.
  • Make a nest in the middle of the roasted vegetables, and crack the egg in side. Seal the foil packet again and bake for another 10 minutes until the egg is cooked all the way through to the center. It should not be runny at all. Add additional salt and pepper as desired, and enjoy!

Notes

 

Egg Refrigeration Safety!

I can't stress enough to make sure your eggs have been properly refrigerated before cooking them. The FDA says eggs should be kept at 40 degrees Fahrenheit, and in their original containers. No leaving them out overnight while camping... make sure they have been well refrigerated.  Keep food safety first in mind.  If you question the eggs,eave them out of this recipe and make the packets with just the vegetables and spices.  No one wants to get sick camping.
