Ever thought about baking an avocado? I got creative with my meal and a baked avocado egg topped with creamy feta cheese was born.

When I was a kid, I remember the sheer disgust on my face as my Dad would cut open an avocado. The thought of eating anything green and mushy was the least bit appealing to me. Now, avocados are life. Literally. Avocados are the new it food. So much so that there are shortages from time to time. I would’ve never thought as a kid that there would ever be a shortage because I never thought people liked them so much.

Honestly, I thought avocados were something only people from the islands ate because my Dad was the only person I knew that ate them. Now as an adult, Tatiana stands in my shoes. She cannot stand the sight of avocados. Don’t even try getting her to eat one because it is not going to happen. I’m proud to say now that I love avocados. I love how they can be a stand alone dish, a side dish, or the perfect compliment to any meal. Since I discovered my new found love of avocados, I’ve been trying all types of recipes.

Ever thought about baking an avocado? Nope? Never? Me either until one day all I had was an avocado and an egg for breakfast. I got creative with my meal and a baked avocado egg topped with creamy feta cheese was born.
