Ingredients
  

  • 2 avocados halved and seeded
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives Optional
  • Everything But the Bagel Seasoning
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper To taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Prepare a Lightly oil a baking sheet, coat with nonstick spray. Or use with parchment paper or Latex cookie sheet pads - they are fantastic if you haven't tried,
  • Using a spoon, scoop out about two tablespoons of avocado flesh, creating a small well in the center of each avocado.
  • Gently crack 1 egg, and slide it into the well, keeping the yolk intact. If the whites spill over...that is ok...as you will see from my photos!
  • Repeat with remaining eggs; season with Everything But the Bagel or salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Place into oven and bake until the egg whites have set but the yolks are still runny, about 15-18 minutes.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with chives, if desired.

Notes

Melissa's Modifications: 
A simple recipe that is easy and delicious. Add Salsa, Sriracha or hot sauce of your choice on the side for added flavors. 
If you do not eat eggs you can pour in a plant based alternative that I use called Just Eggs. Follow the same directions and timing until the Just Eggs is firm.
