Avocado Egg Breakfast with Salsa Verde inspired in the traditional Huevos Rancheros my mother was used to prepare for us but with a healthier twist. I have chosen hass avocados as the vessel to cook the egg inside and also as a replacement for the fried tortillas in pork lard, one of the main ingredients for huevos rancheros.

In this recipe for avocado egg breakfast Ā I have chosen hass avocados as the vessel to cook the egg inside and also as a replacement forĀ the fried tortillas in pork lard, one of the main ingredients for huevos rancheros.

This dish for avocado egg breakfast is ready in less than 15Ā minutes and doesn’t need any cooking oil. I am creating a steam bath with water for cooking the avocado egg in a skillet resulting in a luscious and tender sunny side up egg that will melt in your mouth and pairs very nicely with the creaminess of the hass avocado.Ā TheĀ salsa verde is also fat free and it is made with fresh produce like tomatillos, garlic, cilantro and serranos, adding a very nice flavor that rounds the dish in a very nice way.
