Baked Avocados


Baked Avocados come together quickly for an easy weeknight dinner. A creamy avocado is topped with savory garlic and cheese and sweet tomato and basil for a delicious dinner. They taste great with fresh garden tomato and basil, if you made them back in August like I did! Or, live in an area where your garden is still flourishing!

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450°. Halve and pit the avocado. Sprinkle the remaining ingredients among the two avocado halves. Place on a small baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
