HOW TO MAKE CHEESY AVOCADO EGG BOATS
STEP 1: Preheat
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
STEP 2: Prep the avocado
Slice the avocado in half and remove the pit.
Scoop out a small amount of flesh from the center to create a slightly larger well for the egg.
Tip: Don’t throw away the extra avocado! Mash it with lemon and save it for toast or a salad.
STEP 3: Add the egg
Place the avocado halves in a small baking dish to keep them stable.
Carefully crack a small egg into each hollow. If the egg is too large, pour some of the white off before adding.
STEP 4: Season and top
Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, paprika, and shredded cheddar cheese.
STEP 5: Bake
Bake for 12–15 minutes, depending on how runny or firm you prefer your yolk.
The egg whites should be set, and the cheese lightly golden.
Let cool slightly before serving.
WHAT MAKES THIS SO SATISFYING?
Avocado provides heart-healthy monounsaturated fats that help reduce inflammation and keep you full.
Eggs deliver high-quality protein to support muscle and steady energy.
Cheddar adds that irresistible savory depth and creamy melt.
Together, it’s a nutrient-dense combination that feels indulgent without being heavy.
