Yields: 2 Servings

Ingredients

2 room temperature avocados, halved and pitted

4 organic pastured eggs

1/4 tsp sea salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp minced fresh parsley or cilantro

Optional toppings: chives, crushed red pepper, nutritional yeast, cashew cheese, salsa, chopped cooked bacon, toasted sunflower or pumpkin seeds

Directions

1Preheat oven to 450F.

2Slice avocados in half, remove pit, and slightly hollow out the avocados to make room for the egg. (You can eat the extra avocado or freeze it for your next smoothie!)

3Arrange avocados in a 8” square baking dish so they won’t tip over.

4Crack the eggs into a small dish and gently spoon 1 egg yolk into each avocado half, then fill in with remaining egg whites.

5Sprinkle on salt and pepper.

6Bake at 450F for 15-20 minutes, or until eggs are cooked to your liking.

7Top with a sprinkle of cilantro or parsley and enjoy! You can also add further seasoning and toppings according to your preference.
