I know you guys loved my interview with Marie from 8th and Lake ! I couldn’t believe how many shares that post had… and, as Marie and I promised at the end of that post, here is one of her best recipes, her Spicy Baked Stuffed Avocado that I can’t wait to try it!!

Here are the words that Marie used to describe this recipe:

“This is actually one of the top posts from my blog and it’s a simple one! My Baked Stuffed Avocado is a delicious and quick breakfast. You can make it in advance and reheat in the morning for a simple meal that feels like a fancy brunch. Top it with anything you’d like.

And to keep it vegan, forget the egg, and stuff with chickpeas or quinoa and pesto sauce for a creamy alternative”

Ingredients

  • 2 Avocados
  • 4 organic Eggs
  • 1 handful Cilantro
  • 1 Green Onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 tbspHarissa (optional)
  • ¼ tspChili Flakes
  • 1 tsp Sesame Seeds
  • ½ Lime, squeezed
  • 1 pinch Sea Salt

Procedure

  1. Start by preheating the oven to 400F.
  2. Cut the avocados in half and scoop out a bit of the flesh from the center (think about digging a little whole in the middle of the avocado without piercing through to the other side) and save the rest for a later salad.
  3. Add a small layer of harissa in the whole.
  4. Crack the egg into the whole – try to get the yolk in the whole while the white part spills over the pan and around the avocado.
  5. Add a pinch of salt and let this bake for 10 to 15 minutes.
  6. Once it bakes off, take it out from the oven and add on all your toppings with a squeeze of lime juice. Enjoy!
