  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 180C/356F. Halve the avocados and remove the stone. With a spoon or ice cream scoop, remove a little of the flesh to make the cavity a bit bigger for stuffing. Reserve the flesh and set aside.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Place the scooped-out flesh in a bowl with the minced garlic, mixed seeds, oregano and feta cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well to combine.
