Avocado Baked Eggs with Bacon Recipe
Makes 2 servings
Ingredients:
- 1 avocado
- 2 slices of turkey bacon
- 2 large eggs
- Salt and pepper as desired
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with a nonstick spray. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, cook the bacon most of the way. Don?t cook it completely because it will bake in the oven also.
- Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Spoon out the avocado around the area the pit was to make the crater larger. Set the avocado aside to enjoy on it?s own or as guacamole.
- Cut the cooked bacon strips in half and place two halves in each avocado.
- Crack one egg into each avocado. It?s ok if the white part runs out of the avocado slightly, just keep the yolk in the crater.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until eggs are cooked. The yolk will jiggle when you shake the pan, but the whites will be set.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a couple minutes. Be careful, as the avocado skin will be hot.
- Salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy 1 avocado half and share the other one with a friend! Enjoy!

Now before you head to the kitchen to whip up some bacon, avocado, and egg yummyness, I just have to share some health benefits of avocados and eggs. Avocados, while they do contain fat, it?s the healthy, monounsaturated fat that helps lower cholesterol. Plus, they contain over 20 vitamins and minerals per serving, which helps decrease your risk of cancer, lower your blood pressure, and fight off infection and disease. And the fiber in avocados helps you feel fuller longer + you?re getting those fiber benefits too!
Eggs got a bit of a bad rap a while ago, but they?re actually little protein powerhouses! In fact, they have what?s called the ?Gold Standard? of protein, and the nutrients in eggs can also help fight diseases and help your memory. Yes, please! And if ?build healthy muscle? is your goal, then eggs are your friend! A study showed that eating eggs after a workout can actually help with muscle growth! Just remember…too much of a good thing, like avocados and eggs, can be not so friendly transformation-wise, so moderation is the key here. 😉

Hi! Chris Powell & Heidi Powell
My name is: Michelle Amalfitano. I’m 31 year old, live in NY, I work at Dallas BBQ – Call Center, I don’t have kids & I’m single.
?Me writing you this letter it really hard because I can’t stop crying because once I know you will help me, my life will change for good.
I’m reaching out to you because I’m desperately need your help. I saw you before on TLC Show call – Extreme weight loss and I saw magnificent work you have done to help people lose all that weight and they so happy after all that hard work you help. I been trying so hard to reach out to you so long I didn’t know where to write or who call to get on contact with you so you can help me. I even call the studio TLC to contact you because I needed your help so badly to help me lose weight because of my health problems they never call me back in 4 years and now it make 5 years. Here my conditions -> Blood Pressure (Genetics Can’t help I got from father side), I had foot surgery 3 years ago but ever since I haven’t been able to been my knees and I had injury on my left knee from work 2 years ago, I been depressed for 10 years I never told my family because they never make me feel comfortable to come to them about my feelings it like with they if they not happy I can’t be happy until they, I been single for 8 years because of my X Fiance did a lot of thing behide my back I until I find out things from people he cheated on and other stuff that hard to talk about. I been stressing out for a very long time, I even go see a therapist because my family I really do feel they draining me out and not supporting my dreams & goal in my life. I really don’t get support in my house hold I live with my family my older brother and my parents and they in bad health & shape their self. They say they helping me but they buy so much fatting food yelling at me because I’m not trying to lose weight telling me I’m fat and ugly that I should look at my old picture to motivate myself to loss all that weight you have on you and I tell them most of time you can’t tell me what I’m doing wrong when ya doing the samething my brother & my mother be bulling me for years since I was 18 year old that when my weight started to pick up and never been to gym before I use to play sport back then which is vally ball it help to get in that perfect weight & shape. When my brother & my mother keep saying bad thing to me I get very depressed and eat a lot of food from my house to outside because of my pain I feel that they put me through. For 10 years I be asking God why me, please take me with you so I won’t feel this pain anymore. My family yell at me talk down on me use me for money because I’m the only one is working and the youngest one in the house, my brother don’t work and he the oldest & my parents is under disability check they get ever month is a lot stress on me because I get pay every week and what make it not enough to help myself & my family I really want to move out and start my life but I can’t because of my income I make. If my brother was to help I would of been way less stress knowing the pressure wouldn’t be on me it would have been balance between 2 people working and helping my parents with disability check’s that they get every month. I use to be 120 and now I think I’m 255lb to 260lb I’m not sure but I scared to look at my weight. I really want to go back to 120lb I know it won’t be easy but I’m so tired of being tired & stressing out. So Chris Powell & Heidi Powell will you please help me.
