I love to mix a little homemade salsa with my scrambled eggs, so this healthy recipe is right up my alley! Since it incorporates salsa ingredients deconstructed, everybody can make theirs as spicy or mild as they like it. Using the avocado skin for serving is very cute and makes these just a little more special!

With each recipe, I am learning to like the avocado more and more. This however does not look like a recipe that I would enjoy but I know my two sons would love this. I can surprise them the next time they come for a visit. I will be saving this recipe.

This is a very healthy recipe. You could even elect to use egg whites only to make it that much more healthy. This is almost a eat on the go recipe but you would really need to use a fork to eat it.

THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE BREAKFAST ITEM. I AM DIABETIC SO THIS IS A GREAT CHOICE FOR ME. THE NAVY SHIP TOOK ME BACK ABOUT 40 YEARS. MY COUSIN WAS STATIONED ON THE USS CAMDEN AND TOOK ME TO FAMILY DAY. WE SAILED AROUND CATALINA, TOURED THE SHIP. BEST OF ALL FOR A 17 YEAR OLD GIRL WE ATE LUNCH SURROUNDED BY ALL THOSE UNIFORMED SAILORS.
