Eggs and Avocados

Photobucket

The other day I was reading a book and I came to a part where the main character was eating scrambled eggs with chopped up avocados. It intrigued me.

I've never thought of combining those 2 ingredients before. I like scrambled eggs. I like avocados. I am not revolted at the thought of putting those two things together, so I might as well try it.

So one afternoon I decided to give it a go. I chopped up a little bit of onion and cooked it in some butter. I scrambled some eggs and added cheese at the end. I happened to have some tortillas on hand so I decided to make it into a burrito. After putting the eggs onto the tortilla I chopped up the avocado and put it on top.

And you know what? I liked it. The two tastes and textures go very well with each other. It is a mild tasting meal, but tasty and I would say comforting. Scott liked it as well, but he decided to add some salsa to his. Next time you have a few avocados that need to be used, give it a try with or without a tortilla. You may just like it.

Hmmmm..not much of an avacado person, but it sure makes a pretty picture. I'm sure mom would love it. Sounds like a California dish.

I will have to try that sometime. I think Adam would love it.
