Easy Eggs In An Orange But Dont Tell the Chicken

Fascinating idea to me...probably all the campfire girls know it. Make several at a time. Sounds like fun.
Ingredients
- oranges shopping list
- eggs shopping list
- campfire shopping list
How to make it
- Cut a large orange in half and scrape out the fruit from both pieces. With a sharp knife, cut a small “x” on one orange half about 1 cm below the rim.
- Cut another “x” just below the opposite rim. Thread a long pointed stick through the cuts so that the orange half hangs like a basket. While someone holds the half peel steady, crack a small egg into it. Grasp the end of the stick and hold the orange shell over the campfire (low flames or embers) for about 10 minutes.
- Let cool for a few minutes and remove the orange from the stick. Add salt and pepper… and enjoy your egg!
