Stuffed Breakfast Avocado Egg Cups

Filled with scrambled eggs, crispy bacon and pepper-jack cheese, stuffed breakfast avocado egg cups is the recipe for a healthy filling meal.

Breakfast is an essential meal for getting your day started right. After sleeping, your body needs the nutrients to get your metabolism going for the day.

Choosing a healthy breakfast, without added sugars, is important in my diet. I like easy grab-n-go recipes like, SAUSAGE, EGG AND CHEESE MUFFINS or these, TURKEY EGG AND CHEESE MUFFINS.

Health Benefits of Avocados

Here are just a few health benefits of avocados, and why you will find one a day on my plate.

• Avocados are low in carbs and high in healthy kinds of fat.
• Abundant in nutrients, avocados have vitamin k, folate, vitamin c, potassium, vitamin B5, vitamin B6, and vitamin E.
• Avocados high in monounsaturated oleic acid, a heart-healthy fatty acid.

With just those few health benefits, and how delicious an avocado tastes, you can see why I love adding them into my meals. Add in scrambled eggs and crispy bacon, you get a healthy stuffed breakfast avocado egg cup recipe.

How to Make Stuffed Breakfast Avocado Egg Cups

Step 1: Fry Bacon

In a large cast iron skillet, fry the bacon to your desired crispness. After bacon has fried, set aside to cool. Crumble bacon into small pieces. Don’t forget to save your bacon grease, use it later to make the best fried sweet potatoes.

Step 2: Scramble Eggs

In a cast iron skillet, add a small amount of butter or bacon grease. Hit skillet to medium heat. Crack and add the desired amount of eggs into a bowl. Whisk, season with salt and pepper. After whisking, pour egg mixture in the skillet. Scramble eggs to your desired liking.

Step 3: Grate Cheese

For this recipe, you can use your favorite kind of cheese. Grate the amount of cheese that you need. I love the taste of scrambled eggs, bacon, avocado and pepper-jack. Pepper-jack cheese gives this recipe that tiny bit of spice that I love.

Step 4: Cut Avocado

Cut the avocado in half, long ways. Use a spoon to scoop out the avocado. Place the now empty avocado shell onto a plate. Slice the avocado into slices, then small chunks.

Step 5: Assemble

In the avocado shell (cup), place a small amount of scrambled eggs, then several avocado chunks. Then, add on the crispy bacon and pepper-jack cheese.

Enjoy!

Stuffed Avocado Egg Cup Add-Ins

There are a lot of add-ins that you could add to this recipe. Need a little bit of spice, add some hot sauce. Want some vegetables, add in some tomatoes. If you don’t like bacon, try adding ground sausage or even small pieces of ham. Feel free to add your choice of toppings.

How to Store Stuffed Breakfast Avocado Egg Cups

Often times, I have leftovers for this meal. I use a glass refrigerator bowl to store the ingredients. In the bowl, layer scrambled eggs, chunks of avocado, crispy bacon and cheese. Place lid on bowl, and store in the refrigerator. This makes for a quick breakfast the next morning.
