Baked avocado halves stuffed with goat cheese and drizzled with balsamic reduction.

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 1/2 a small zucchini cut into thin slices
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 large avocados
  • 2 ounces goat cheese about 1/2 ounce per each avocado half

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small dish with tinfoil.
  • Heat the oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat.
  • Add the minced garlic and sliced zucchini and sauté until golden brown and soft, about 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt. Set aside to cool.
  • Pour the balsamic vinegar into a small pot and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Once the vinegar boils, turn it down to a simmer and stir until it reduces by half, about 6-8 minutes. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Set aside.
  • Slice the avocados in half, taking out the pits. Scoop some more of the center out, making a slightly larger cavity.
  • Place some of cooked zucchini in each cavity, followed by some goat cheese, pressing it in well.
  • Repeat for one more layer.
  • Bake on the prepared baking tray until the avocado’s flesh is soft and the cheese is nice and melted, about 10-15 minutes (depending how soft your avocado was from the start).
  • Drizzle with balsamic reduction and serve!
