Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut the 1 Large Avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit. If it’s a small pit, use a spoon to remove some of the avocado meat and make room for the egg.
Place the avocados in two small ramekins to keep them upright. Or you can bake without ramekins.
Crack the 2 Eggs into each avocado half and top with Salt and Pepper to Taste, ½ tablespoon Parsley, and 1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese.
Bake for 12-14 minutes or until the eggs is cooked to your liking.
Top with tomatoes before serving.

If your avocado has a small pit, use a spoon to remove some of the avocado meat and make room for the egg.
You'll need to keep the avocado upright, so the egg stays in. You can place them in ramekins to make it easier.
When cracking the eggs into the avocado, be careful not to break the yolk.
For a spicy kick, sprinkle on some crushed red chili flakes.
In place of Parmesan, you can top with cheddar or crumbled feta
Top with chopped fresh tomato, for a pop of freshness.
Try looking for the larger avocados since they work better for this recipe. They have a larger pit and thus a larger space for eggs.
