You can read more about choosing the right type of avocados for the recipe below, in case you’re new to the avocado trend.

Choosing the right avocados

Use avocados that are just ripe or they can be slightly under-ripe. If the avocados are over-ripe, they’ll be too soft to peel and work with, unless you don’t mind the mess. You can extend the life of your avocados by leaving them out until they’re just becoming soft. Then, store them in your refrigerator to slow down the ripening process, making the avocados last longer.

More egg toppings

Try adding a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt on top of your eggs for a tangy flavor and even creamier texture. A sprinkle of shredded cheese will melt nicely over the hot scrambled eggs too. Trade out the bacon for pancetta or chopped prosciutto for a salty twist. You can read in the comment section what other users have done with their Keto avocado boats for breakfast!

Meal prep tips

Prepare both the bacon and scrambled eggs in advance. Store these items separately in your refrigerator in sealed containers. Then, at mealtime, simply peel your avocado half and fill it with the egg mixture. You can microwave the entire dish together or re-heat the egg before spooning it into your avocado.
