Eggocado or Eggvocado (baked egg in avocado)

“Eggocado” or “eggvocado” (egg + avocado) is a baked egg inside an avocado. Recipes for the dish have been cited since at least January 2012 and have appeared on Tumblr and other websites. The egg takes the place of the avocado pit.

Eggocado!
I woke up this morning mostly groggy only to find myself sluggishly moving toward the couch to sit for the next twenty minutes staring ahead.  In my quest of nothingness, I noticed a brown bag from Whole Foods sitting on the kitchen counter containing a single avocado purchased yesterday.  And thus, my post for the day!

Eggvocado (Baked Egg in Avocado)

The Eggvocado recipe has been floating around on Pinterest boards and its rising popularity encouraged me to try it out for myself. I did not follow the original recipe. I took the advice of The Traveling Spoon and followed her recipe instead.

Slice an avocado in half, remove the pit, and carve out enough space in the center for an egg to fit. Crack an egg into the hollowed out portion of the avocado, and bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes until eggs reach desired consistency. For those trying to avoid too much fat and fiber, just have half an avocado with 1 egg.
