Cooking & Baking
Related: About this forumEgg baked in avocado
I tried it for the first time today. Avocados have been cheap lately at the groc so I have been buying more. Googled some other ways to use them and found this way to (basically) poach an egg.
I think it is more trouble than it is worth. Tho the flavors do go well together.
I used a slice of bacon under the avocado half, then precooked both to make sure the bacon was properly done and the egg was hitting hot avocado flesh. Scooped out a little flesh too. Cracked the egg right in the avocado. After about 15-20 min I had a mostly cooked egg. Served with toasted baguette to dip in the yolk.
I probably wont go to the trouble again tho. I like other combinations better.

I prefer the old warm tortilla. BUT, I haven't tried it with egg so I am looking forward to my healthy breakfast tomorrow.
