I saw this egg dish in a restaurant and decided to create my own simple version. You couldn’t get a healthier and more filling breakfast.
2 avocados
4 medium or small eggs
1/8th tsp salt
1 oz crumbled goat or feta cheese
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
1.Preheat oven to 375 F.
2.Cut avocados in half, lengthwise and twist to separate. Remove pit and scoop out about 1 – 1 ½ tbsp of avocado creating a larger hole. Big enough to hold entire egg without spilling out. Use the scooped out avocado for another purpose.
3.Place in a baking dish and crack one egg over 4 avocado halves. Add salt. Bake for 15 – 20 minutes, just until whites are set but still slightly loose.
4.Garnish with cheese and cilantro.
