INGREDIENTS (for 2 people)
1 large avocado
2 small eggs
Pepper and salt
Chilli flakes
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
Halve the avocado and remove the pit. Make the hole slightly larger by spooning some of the avocado out and break the egg into it carefully. Keep the yolk whole. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and chilli flakes.
Place the half avocados in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes until the egg has set. For a harder yolk, simply leave the avocado in the oven for longer.
HEALTHY SNACKS
A handful of nuts. Almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, pecans, cashew nuts... Go for unroasted nuts. Make your own mix and add sunflower or pumpkin seeds.
Dark chocolate. Is chocolate healthy? Yes, if you go for chocolate containing at least 70% cocoa. Have two pieces with your tea or coffee.
Fruit. A banana or apple are easy to take with you. Or fill a tray with blueberries or blackberries.
Rice cakes with hummus or a nut paste. For something savoury.
Cucumber or cherry tomatoes. Cut the cucumber into pieces and add some salt and pepper.
Olives. Preferably as fresh as possible.
