Avocado Egg Boats

Ingredients:

• 2 avocados halved with pit removed 
• 4 medium eggs 
• salt and pepper to taste 

Optional toppings:

• 2 strips of bacon diced and cooked till crispy optional 
• 1/2 red bell pepper finely chopped 
• 1/4 cup spinach chopped 
• chopped fresh herbs for garnish 

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 F degrees.
2. Line a baking sheet or baking pan with foil or parchment paper (for easier cleanup).
3. Cut avocados in half and scoop an additional 1-2 tablespoons of the avocado flesh out to create a larger nest for the eggs.
4. Position the avocado halves propped against the baking dish or touching the other avocados snugly to avoid spilling over. You can also place a small ramekin and prop them against the avocados.
5. Gently crack one egg in each avocado half - if needed - save some of the egg whites in another bowl if the avocado well is too small.
6. Bake for 13-18 minutes, or until the whites are set and the egg yolks are cooked to your liking.
7. 13-14 min. - softer yolks
8. 15-16 min. - medium yolks
9. 17-18 min. - hard-boiled yolks
