I am on FIRE this week with posting!! This never happens. Must be something about this week. All the love in the air, maybe?
Brenda has started The Eating the Alphabet challenge back up! The letters this month were A or B. I chose A for avocado. But is it a fruit or vegetable? Wikipedia says it's a fruit, but I've always thought of it as a vegetable. What do I know?
By now, you guys know I'm a breakfast girl.
Yeah, I may be eating it at noon on a weekend "morning" but nonetheless, I love my breakfast.
You know what else I love just as much as breakfast? Avocados. Crazy how I used to be so scared of that green stuff that now makes my life so worth living. Yeah, I live a boring life :)
So this right here is some of my favorite things all together in one recipe. I can satisfy my love of breakfast food, specifically BACON, and my love of avocado all at once.
Not gonna lie, getting that egg to stay in the avocado hole can be a little frustrating. Make sure to dig a deep enough hole that the whole egg can sit in without spilling over. I didn't wanna scoop out too much avocado because I was scared there wouldn't be enough in the finished product! But next time I'd definitely scoop out some more because there was still plenty of avocado. I also used my usual large eggs and next time would try it with medium eggs to see if that helps it fit in the avocado better without spilling over.

What a fantastic blend of salty from the bacon, and creamy from the avocado, with a little runny yolk from the egg. And I liked the warm avocado, it was a nice change from the cool that I usually associate with avocado.
Probably making this again this weekend. It's that good. Would I lie to you?
Peace, and bacon grease!

This looks ridiculous in the best possible way!!! Scooping out avocado just means that you get to eat spoonfuls of avocado while it cooks ;)
Dudette...I am 100% making this for Alexis soon. She loves avocados and baked eggs, the two together, forget about it!

Yum! My three favorite foods all together! I have baked eggs in muffin cups, but never in an avocado - definitely going to try!
This looks like a perfect breakfast! I always have avocado with my eggs but now they can literally be together : )
I LOVE avocados and have been looking for more breakfast recipes. This looks perfect and so delicious - thanks for sharing!
I have 5 avocados ripening on my counter. Hurry up avocadoes, I MUST make this recipe.
Like you I also was not a big avocado fan, but recently I need to get more potassium and avocados are full of it. This looks so good pinning it.
Followed you here from the Clever Chicks blog hop.
This looks awesome. My husband adores avocados! I am going to try it!
I absolutely love this recipe! I'm lying in bed drooling with my belly grumbling just looking at the pictures. I know what I'm having for breakfast now. I love to eat eggs everyday and I now have a different way to cook them!
You are definatly a chic with attitude!
Thank you.
One of my fans posted your recipe and I had to come check it out! We ship and sell rare and special avocados at www.AvocadoDiva.com
Thanks for sharing!!
Made these - turned out great!
Unfortunately, I was dreadfully disappointed despite all the excitement I had making it. THE AVOCADO TURNED OUT EXCEPTIONALLY BITTER! Why? I cannot explain it.... can anyone figure out why this avocado that was delish & NOT bitter in its raw & cool state became very bitter? Was it from the skin of the avocado perhaps? I followed your instructions to a tee and bacon & egg was just perfect. But puke to the avocado part. Sadly.
i tried thgis and it was very good just make sure you put it in long enough to cook the egg
