Preheat your oven to 350F. Cut avocadoes in half and remove the seeds. Carefully remove some of the avocado flesh to make room for the egg. Use small or medium size eggs since large eggs tend to overflow.
Place the avocado halves in a muffin pan or small baking pan to help keep them from moving around. Crack an egg into each avocado half. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper to each avocado, if desired.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until egg set to your preference. Remove from oven and top with cheese and bacon.

Tips and Substitutions

- Keep a perfectly ripe avocado fresh and prevent it from turning brown by placing it into a sealable plastic bag and refrigerate it.
- If you don't want to put the raw egg in the avocado, you can soft boil it first. Then put it in the avocado and proceed with the rest of the recipe instructions.

- Instead of bacon, you can used cooked breakfast sausage, chopped Canadian bacon, or chopped turkey sausage links. Or just leave the meat out altogether and some small, diced vegetables such as onion, bell pepper, or broccoli.
