For all you avocado lovers and egg lovers, this recipe is for you. This baked avocado and egg recipe delivers the healthy fats and protein in one breakfast meal. If you have not tried avocados baked, you are in for a treat!
This is great option for those watching their carbs. I like adding smoky paprika to my dishes, but feel free to play around with the seasoning. The flavor and melting quality of monterey jack is my favorite, but for a spicy kick I would definitely do go for pepper jack cheese!
