Avocados seem to consistently rank at the top of everyone’s list of favorite foods. Guacamole is a fan favorite and avocado toast has become an internet sensation but, have you tried baked avocados? Filled with an egg, they’re surprisingly satisfying, easy to make and loaded with healthy vitamins and fats.

The list of ingredients for this recipe is extremely short, but when you shop at Heinen’s, even the most simple recipes feature the highest quality ingredients.

Take Heinen’s pasture-raised eggs for example. Raised on Ohio-farms, the hens that produce Heinen’s pasture-raised eggs forage on fresh pasture year-round, which contains less saturated fat and more vitamin A, vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids than commercial eggs. Certified humane and free of antibiotics and added hormones, they’re the ideal Club Fx-approved ingredient to keep in your fridge for this recipe and any egg-based dishes you love.

To make these Baked Avocados, start by cutting the avocado in half and removing the pit. Drizzle the interior with a bit of olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt. Then, crack in a raw egg and bake at 400°F until the whites are opaque. That’s all there is to it.

By Heinen's Grocery Store

In 1929, Joe Heinen opened the doors of a small butcher shop on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to establish himself as the city’s purveyor of quality meats. As customers came into Heinen’s new shop for their meat purchases, they began asking him to carry groceries as well. Joe added homemade peanut butter, pickles and donuts and by 1933, business had grown enough to include a line of produce and canned goods. Heinen’s Grocery Store was born.
