  • Crack your egg and add it to the inside of your avocado. Sprinkle a little cheese on top with a pinch of salt. Top with cooked bacon.

Notes

TIPS FOR BAKED EGGS IN AVOCADO

  • Make sure your avocados are room temperature and not refrigerated.
 
  • Scoop out about 1-1.5 tablespoons of avocado to create enough room for your egg. But scoop wide versus deep. If you scoop deep, it will take longer for the egg to cook.
 
  • Use large eggs. Extra large or jumbo will be too big for the avocado.
 
  • Keep the avocados upright and level by using a small baking dish, ramekins, or even a muffin tray.
 
  • There are two ways to insert the egg. You can either gently crack the egg and let any whites overflow into your baking dish (it’ll happen). Or, you can crack the egg into a small bowl, then use a spoon to transfer the yolk into the avocado first and add just enough egg white to fit the cavity. Either way works.

Fenugreek, or methi as it’s known in India, is one of the oldest medicinal plants and has been used to treat everything from fevers, memory loss, edema, ulcers, Inflammatory Bowel Disease and other digestive issues. Fenugreek does however may cause babies to feel gassy and decrease milk supply for some mothers. Drink with discretion.
Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour
Course Soup

Ingredients
  

1 cup sliced carrots

1 cup fresh green peas

2 skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces

7 cups vegetable broth

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

3 tablespoons ghee

2 cloves garlic minced

2 teaspoons fenugreek seeds

1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

ÂĽ teaspoon turmeric powder

½ lemon, juiced

salt to taste

    Instructions
     

    Heat ​the ​ghee in a ​large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and fry until golden brown. The​n​ add ginger and fry for another 30 seconds.

    • Stir in Fenugreek seed, coating the seeds with the ghee mixture.
    • ​Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer​.
    • Add the chicken, reduce the heat to a low simmer, and poach until the chicken is firm and just cooked through, ~ 3-5 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
    • Bring the broth back to a simmer and add the​ turmeric and​ carrots​, cooking until they’re just tender, about 7 minutes.
    • Add the peas​ and​ chicken and simmer until everything is heated through. Add the parsley and ​dill. ( may omit peas if you dont prefer them)
    • Season with salt and pepper.
    • To serve, top with a squeeze of lemon and enjoy warm.

    Notes

    • Be sure to SIMMER the soup, not boil. You want to bring your soup up to a simmer, not a rapid boil. The slow simmering will help the chicken soup stay clear and really develop a flavorful broth as the chicken cooks.
    • As the soup simmers, use a spoon or a strainer spoon to scoop out scum as the soup comes to a simmer. Scum is the name given to the cloudy material that floats to the top of the broth as the soup simmer. Removing it will help your broth be much more clear.
