The combination of eggs, bacon and avocado is certainly a breakfast favorite! Often when I make scrambled eggs I’ll add some diced avocados and crumbled bacon on top as well. It’s so good! Another variation are my Egg, Caramelized Onion and Avocado Breakfast Tacos. They are yum-e! There are so many variations you can make with just eggs, bacon and avocado and 3 staple ingredients I ALWAYS have on hand!
That’s actually how I came up with these Stuffed Avocado Breakfast Cups. These tasty little cups are simple, delicious and filling. Simply cut the avocado in half, remove the pit and skin. Scoop out a little of the flesh to make a well in the center. That’s where all the yummy filling will go. So easy. I like to rub a little lime or lemon juice on the avocados as well to prevent them from browning quickly. Once my cups are ready to go it’s time to scramble some eggs and assemble these cups.
What I love about these is they’re totally customizable. I keep it simple with just eggs, a little diced onion, bacon and chives. You could also add in a little cheese in the eggs or on top as well. That’s how Mr. Mother Thyme likes it. For the most part I still skip the cheese. Don’t get me wrong I love cheese and dairy and do consume it but just on a very limited basis. I don’t even use any milk in my scrambled eggs. I used to but I don’t anymore and I don’t even miss it or even notice there’s no milk in the scrambled eggs.
My family eats A LOT of eggs. My kiddos love scrambled eggs so I go through a few dozen each week. Along with eggs for breakfast I always hard boil a half a dozen eggs each week to use in salads, egg salad or just to grab and eat for a quick little boost with a little salt and pepper on top.
