Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. I love to wake up to a hot dish that’s a delicious source of healthy fats and protein to get my brain going. A little heat from hot peppers doesn’t hurt either. This recipe is super simple and wonderfully satisfying. You can top it with a little sour cream, fresh cilantro, pickled onions, or serve it over corn grits for an extra special treat. Get creative!
Rise & Shine Baked Avocado
Ingredients
1 organic Hass avocado, cut in half with seed removed
2 organic farm eggs
½ tsp organic Mexican Seasoning or equal parts organic cumin powder, garlic powder, oregano, and chili powder
¼ cup shredded organic cheddar cheese
organic salsa
fine sea salt and organic cracked black pepper to taste
Directions
Pre-heat your oven to 425 degrees. Place the avocado halves into a baking dish and stabilize them with a little foil if needed. Crack one egg into each empty pit of your avocado halves. You can scoop a bit of avocado out if you need more room for the egg. Season with a bit of salt and pepper. Sprinkle ¼ tsp of Mexican Seasoning on each egg filled avocado. Top each half with shredded cheese and pop into the oven for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, top with salsa, and enjoy!
