Broiled Egg Stuffed Avocado Breakfast

 Eggs and avocados are two of my favorite things. So I thought why not cook an egg in an avocado?! I broil them so it only takes a few minutes and season simply with cheese and salt and pepper. Simple and delicious, this has quickly become a favorite breakfast dish in our home!

Want to try avocado for dinner too? Check out my recipe here.

 

Ingredients:

Makes 4 servings
  • 2 large ripe Haas avocados
  • 4 medium to large eggs
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese, I like Cheddar cheeses
  • 1/4 cup grated seasoned Parmesan (or try seasoned breadcrumbs instead)
  • sea salt/cracked black pepper, to taste

Directions:

  1. Preheat broiler.
  2. Slice avocados open, leaving in shell, remove pit, and make slices/scores all over the avocado so it cooks evenly.
  3. Place on a plate and scoop out some of the flash to make the opening larger.
  4.  Crack an egg into each avocado half, letting excess egg white run off onto plate.
  5.  Season with salt and pepper, then add grated seasoned Parmesan (or breadcrumbs), and a sprinkle of shredded cheese. 
  6. Place on a baking sheet, side by side touching (so the halves support each other and the egg does not fall out). 
  7. Place in the broiler and cook until golden on top. Three minutes (for an over easy egg) or up to 5 minutes or so (for a cooked yolk).
  8. Serve with fruit and toast (and a side of bacon if it’s not Meatless Monday!).

Only a few simple ingredients make this great tasting breakfast! I use the largest Haas avocados I can find.
I have tried many different ingredients inside the avocado but I like egg, salt and pepper, grated seasoned Parmesan, and a sprinkling of shredded Parmesan. Simple and delicious!
Make score marks across the inside of the avocado halves so it cooks faster and evenly.
Crack an egg into each avocado halve, letting excess white run off before placing on baking sheet.
Season with salt and pepper.
Add grated seasoned Parmesan (or breadcrumbs).

 
Next add shredded cheese and place on a baking sheet. Broil for 3-5 minutes until melted and golden.
I have also tried these avocados with shredded cheddar and breadcrumbs and a side of bacon (not on Meatless Monday of course).

Ashton made a creamy avocado smoothie for us to share and Ava even had some avocado for breakfast!

🍜 We had so much fun celebrating Lunar New Year last weekend with dinner at @pho_85_noodle_house_llc in Bentonville, AR! The Banh Mi sandwich and Beef and Seafood Pho soups were filled with fresh ingredients and flavor packed. As you can see their portions were huge so it's a great place to share! We also tried an appetizer sampler, Thai Tea, Coconut Boba Smoothie (my girls' favorite) and macarons for dessert. Everything was made to order and delicious. The staff was kind and helpful. If you live near by, check them out and #eatlocall ! ❤️ @visitbentonville #Bentonville  #pho85noodlehouse #arkansasfoodie #whatsfordinner #arkansasblogger #supportlocal #bentonvillearkansas #lunarnewyear #chinesenewyear

🌟I had to step out of my comfort zone today and attend my first networking event since moving to Arkansas. I already  struggle with meeting new people and being social since I work from home but now I live in a new city and know no one. Thank goodness I found @winnwa . The networking lunch today at @bonefishgrill was exciting, encouraging, and of course, fun! Over 80 local business women attended and everyone had a chance to introduce themselves and share what they do. I look forward to more  #womeninnetworking events in the future. Hoping to make some new friends too!
