Catz in the Kitchen

Looking for a simple, healthy breakfast you can whip up for one person or more in about 15 minutes? Try these avocado baked eggs!

Okay, there’s a short story behind this recipe. Chels and I took a trip to Maui last year for our 15th wedding anniversary…a year late, so it was actually over our 16th wedding anniversary! Little Ruby was not quite a year old when our 15th rolled around, so we enjoyed a night away closer to home that year, and saved the bigger trip for later. It all worked out. But…we had never been to Hawaii before (I went when I was two months old – doesn’t count!), and we were slightly skeptical that it would live up to the hype. We’re not typically “beach people,” if you know what I mean – we don’t just lie out on a beach in the sun, we don’t surf, don’t fish, etc. 

As any of you who have been can attest to, it lives up to the hype. We just…relaxed. And it was wonderful. But, this is a food blog, not a travel blog, so returning to the topic at hand…one thing we really enjoyed was eating fresh, healthy breakfasts each morning (typically followed by more indulgent, adventurous meals later in the day!). One breakfast Chels especially enjoyed was among the simplest of all the dishes we sampled – these avocado baked eggs. She loves all things avocado, even more so after not being able to eat them for several years after giving birth to Christian (they just didn’t sound good!).
