Needs more bacon.
This goes for every meal ever made.

I made 6 pieces of bacon and only crushed one on top of the avocado+egg. I had the rest on the side.

How is the avocado after being baked?

Honestly it was just alright, I think just regular avocado lightly peppered is better imo. But I've been having an omelette and avocado for breakfast nearly everyday so I wanted to try something a little different. My sister mixed the yolk and avocado and had it on an english muffin and she really enjoyed it but she's not doing a paleo diet which is why she had the english muffin and I did not.

Personally, baking an avocado is a waste of an avocado. The flavor evaporates and you're left with tasteless mush.

I tried this with very high hopes because I am obsessed with avocados. Turns out baked avocados not only taste awful, but have a really weird almost gelatinous texture. It was the only avocado I've ever left unfinished :(

In case anyone wants to know how to do it it's pretty simple:
I preheated the oven to 425° then put the avocado+egg in for 15 minutes and put in the bacon for for like 8 minutes. Then I just crushed some bacon bits on top when it was ready. Then S&P or hot sauce to your taste.
I recommend cracking the egg into a bowl and pouring it into the avocado instead of just cracking it into the avocado. Also I hallowed out the avocado a bit because the pit was pretty small and just had that part of the avocado and the extra bacon i made on the side.
