Novel ways of cooking eggs (and muffins in an orange)

Egg in baked potato
Slightly bizarre (what's with the mask??)

i think I'd prefer to wrap the potato in foil first, with the scooped out bits in there too so as not to waste them, then I'd be able to eat the whole thing
Bit of curry powder, pepper, chilli maybe
Possibly an idea for the first night away - I'd not want to carry potatoes or eggs very far

NB a similar idea I've seen is some muffin mix inside orange halves - eat the orange flesh first. Then use the two halves as a baking surround, wrapped in foil and placed on the embers.
Here we go - something like this. I just found this randomly

Bacon and eggs in a paper bag

Once again one for the first night, and cooler weather.
Could work with some salami or proscuitto too

These little double egg holders are readily available at BCF, Rays's outdoors etc (I only gave a UK supplier link 'coz i knew there were featured here)

That used to be a classic food drop dessert for us when we could have fires. We cut off the top of the orange (as in your link), and used chocolate cake mix. Particularly yummy after a couple of weeks in the bush.

I remember the egg and potato trick from boy scouts.
