This recipe yields 2 eggs.
Avocado baked Eggs – Easy Breezy Breakfast
Ingredients
- 1 ripe Haas avocado, cut in half and pit removed
- 2 small or medium eggs (large eggs will spill over)
- 1 strip bacon, fried and crumbled (ham, turkey, or cooked sausage may also be used)
- Pinch of Kosher salt and Black pepper
- 1/4 tsp. Hot sauce (optional)
- 1/2 tsp. Cheddar cheese, optional
Instructions
- Using a spoon, scoop out a little more if the avocado, so the cavity is the size of the egg you will use.
- Lightly sprinkle the avocado cavity with Black pepper, and hot sauce.
- Line a baking dish with aluminium foil, scrunched up to support the avocado so it does not tip over.
- Break an egg into the avocado cavity.
- Top it with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese (I skipped it this time)
- Sprinkle crumbled bacon on top of cheese (I used ham...no bacon on hand).
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (I used my toaster oven...it worked great, using less energy and creating less heat in the house)
- Bake 15 minutes, or until the egg white is fully set.
Notes
You may add a side of fresh fruit, to nicely finish off this meal, and to cleanse you palate.
