Instructions
-
Prepare avocado first by halving, pitting, and then gently peeling to remove the skin. Scoop out some of the Avocado flesh, leaving a 1cm thick edge around to create a boat-like shape. Season with salt and set aside.
-
Fry the bacon pieces in a nonstick pan until golden and crisp; transfer to a warm plate.
-
Lightly whisk the eggs. Melt the butter over low-medium heat in the same nonstick pan. As it begins to bubble, add the eggs and stir them around until just starting to cook through (it takes about 3 minutes).
-
Once they’ve set to an almost custard-like consistency, remove from heat and quickly add the cheese folding it through the eggs until the cheese has melted. Spoon into the prepared avocado boats.
-
Season with the crispy bacon, herbs, and pepper. Serve with tomatoes.
