Avocado is one of my favorite foods. I love the texture, taste, even the color. I always thought that it only belonged on salads and sandwiches, but I was wrong! Avocado Bullets are one of my favorite dinners. The cheese pours out of the avocado when sliced open making your mouth water. Besides, everything is better with bacon!
Ingredients needed:
Avocados
Cheese
Bacon
Ground beef
Onion
Garlic
Let's get started..
Preheat the oven to 350*
Cook the bacon until edges are slightly crispy (about 3 min each side)
In a separate pan sauté onions
Grate cheese
Dice garlic
Scoop the avocados out of the peel (video)
Set aside hamburger meat and bacon
Construction..
Stuff avocado with cheese, onion, and garlic
Season halves with basil
Season the hamburger meat and flatten
Put the avocado halves together and place on top of hamburger meat
Form hamburger around avocado until zero green is showing
Wrap meat-covered avocado with bacon in an X formation.
Place on a baking sheet
Oven time..
Place the baking sheet into the heated oven
Cook for 30 minutes until hamburger meat is finished
Turn oven to broil and continue cooking for five minutes. This makes the bacon crispy!
ENJOY! This recipe is easy peasy. I find the avocados to be even more delicious on top of a pillow of mashed potatoes.
I have tried this recipe with turkey bacon, and was not successful keeping the bacon wrapped around the avocado. Send me any suggestions on how I could accommodate that concern. Also, I would love to talk to you about other great avocado recipes, send them my way!
