RECIPE NOTES AND TIPS

• Try looking for the larger avocados since they work better for this recipe. They have a larger pit and thus larger space for eggs.
• If your avocado has a small pit, use a spoon to remove some of the avocado meat and make room for the egg.

• If you don’t have a ramekin, no problem! You can lean the avocados next to each, supporting them.
• Use a preheated oven.
• When cracking the eggs into the avocado, be careful not to break the yolk.
• For a spicy kick, sprinkle on some crushed red chili flakes.
• In place of Parmesan, you can tip with cheddar or crumbled feta
• Top with chopped fresh tomato, for a pop of freshness.
