Baked Egg and Avocado Tostadas

Okay, okay. Clearly I’m eating my way through my dreams of California (that’s okay- yes?)

This post is part of Evernote Food 28 days of breakfast highlighting different breakfast ideas from around the world and my challenge was to use something from my future home state of California. While I thought about going the citrus route, I’m madly in love with avocados, so it only seemed natural (it also helps that I’ve been on an avocado kick recently).

Baked Egg and Avocado Tostadas

I love this breakfast for many reasons but mainly, it packs a whole lot of protein punch. Between the eggs and the avocado, I’m good to go until lunch (sometimes past!)

Plus, it’s so easy to throw together and really takes no time at all!

Be sure to check out my breakfast interview over on the evernote blog and also check out the evernote food facebook page for the 28 days of breakfast!

(PS-I’ve been using Evernote for awhile and it makes me super happy that they’ve created such a stunning food app (the new iPhone/iPad app is just gorgeous!) I highly suggest you pop over and check it out (it’s a free app!))

Ingredients

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400˚.
  2. Toss tortillas in oven and bake until slightly crisp, 5-6 minutes. Remove and smear on salsa. Remove avocado halves and slice into ¼”-1/2″ slices. Slice around outer edge of tortilla, leaving a well in the middle.
  3. Place tortillas on a baking tray covered with a silpat or other non-stick sheet. Crack on egg into center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with goat cheese.
  4. Bake until egg is set, 5-10 minutes (depending on desired firmness of the yolk!)
  5. Serve with a sprinkle of cilantro.

(Fine Print: I did this post in conjunction with Evernote; however, I’m not being paid and all views are my own. I happened to stop  by their offices while I was out visiting M in December and I couldn’t help think what a neat company-plus, I’d love to work in an environment like that one day! I like promoting companies that I think are doing awesome things.)

    The perfect breakfast! I ran out of avocados, I am not going to the store until Friday. When I get more you better believe I am making these. And I just downloaded the Evernote App, can’t wait to test it out!

    OH YES. These are my dream of California too–and I live here! (Although I usually keep my tortilla a bit flexible so I can eat the whole business in convenient handheld taco form.) Fried egg, avocado, and barely-charred corn tortillas are a match made in heaven. :)

    I recently moved to California and I’ve fallen completely in love with all of the fresh produce we have here – especially avocados! Thanks for sharing this. The recipe looks great.

    This is similar to Mexican recipe: Huevos motuleños.

    Are you having the eggs with brown rice and cilantro, or what is the side item? Looks great and incredibly healthy.

      I just had the rice on the side (however if would also be delicious piled on top!)

    Great recipe, can’t wait to try it. Thanks!

  • Rachel O.

    What a great idea! I have all of these ingredients on hand– definitely making tomorrow morning!

    Erin, I absolutely adore your blog. Your photos are so vibrant and gorgeous and I want to make every recipe on here!! Thank you for sharing with us.

    Mmmm! Desayuno Mexicano is my favorite breakfast theme. Even my 15 y/o son requests it. Try this recipe with a homemade tomatillo salsa.

  • Sonja / A Couple Cooks

    This looks seriously delicious. And have I mentioned how jealous I am about your California move?! I am going to be pining away after your new “seasonal” — so different than the lowly Midwestern fare :) :)

  • carrian

    Oh I need this!! California?!!! Take us with you, please!!!
