Avocado Boats


These genius little things are along the same lines as my Mushroom Proscuitto Egg Cups, Smoked Salmon Asparagus Egg Cups and the like, but this time I'm calling them boats. Pinterest is full of this kind of thing, so I cannot take credit for the idea but it is a very good one.

It hardly warrants telling, but carefully crack an egg into the hollow of a ripe avocado - small eggs are best - and bake in the oven until set. I put a few slices of spring onion on mine then finished it off with hot dried chilli, lime juice and coriander. They're good hot or cold and easily transportable. The hard bit is trying not to eat two, as strictly one half of an avocado counts as a portion due to the high calorie and (good) fat content.
