First off, I’d like to offer my deepest sympathies—whatever good those are, I guess—to Ree Drummond and her family during these trying times. I hope everyone comes out of it alright.
That being said, I figured for this edition of Louis Fowler vs. The Pioneer Woman I’d take things down a notch and attempt something that, years ago, I gave her guff for—and received an ample amount of slap-back from her fans for it—her lauded Egg-In-The-Hole recipe. I mean it’s eggs and toast…how hard can I screw that up?
Still working my way through The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Recipes from an Accidental Country Girl, I procured all of the necessary items needed—some healthier than others, natch—pairing the perforated toast and fried ovum with the additionally simple Basic Breakfast Potatoes which, like the name says, is pretty basic. Or so I thought.
