Eggs Cooked in Avocado Rings

We saw Zakarian make eggs cooked in rings of avocado on Next Iron Chef last season and decided to try it:


Egg in avocado ring, egg in pepper ring, toast, apple butter, avocado slices, sauteed pepper slices, fruit salad, coffee
You slice the avocado, leaving the skin on.  I think I got two slices out of one large avocado (because, let's face it, avocados are too expensive for each of us to have one to ourselves).  You put them in a pan and crack eggs into the holes.  Then end.  Pretty simple.  Cover them while they cook so that the top of the egg is done and you don't have to try to flip them.

Since I had a ton of yellow peppers on hand (Meijer manager's special), I did the same thing with some peppers....thick slices, crack eggs, cover while cooking.

They look really great on the plate, but to be honest, this wasn't my favorite.  Raw avocado is infinitely better than cooked avocado, in my opinion.  The peppers were good, though.
