Smoked Salmon and Eggs Baked in Avocado

By Diane Kochilas

Recipes, The Ikaria Diet

Ingredients

2 ripe firm avocados
4 medium eggs preferably organic
4 slices smoked salmon
Sea salt and pepper to taste
Chopped dill or chives or cayenne pepper, optional

Instructions

Halve the avocados lengthwise. Remove the pits.
Place the avocados in a baking dish small enough to hold them snugly. Line the avocado cavities with strips of smoked salmon. Take one egg at a time and carefully crack it into each of the avocado cavities.
Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the eggs set. Remove, garnish if desired with dill or chives, and sprinkle with cayenne for additional heat. Serve.
