Cut a slit in the top of the each potato. With your hands, press open slightly, then use a small measuring cup to press the potato open even more making a pocket or vessel for your sauce and egg.

Scoop ¼-1/3 cup sauce into your potato. With your fingers or a spoon, spread the sauce mostly on the sides, keeping a spot for your egg.

Crack and add your fresh egg to each potato. Add the asparagus or broccoli to the baking sheet. Season your egg with a little salt and fresh cracked pepper. Then diced and sprinkle the baking sheet with the onion, and the feta cheese.
