Avocado Egg-In-A-Hole

Although the traditional toad in a whole is great, adding avocado and Cheddar cheese makes it even better. It makes the perfect breakfast because it's simple and quick to make but also really delicious.

Cut avocado in half; carefully scoop out flesh into 1 large piece. Lay the avocado half on its side, with the hole on its side; cut into 3-4 large pieces, keeping the shape of the hole in each slice.
Cut a hole in the center of each bread slice, big enough to fit an avocado slice.
Melt 2 T. butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat; place 2 bread slices in the skillet; toast on each side, about 2 minutes per side. Place avocado slices inside each slice of bread. Crack an egg into the center of each circle; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cover; cook until eggs are cooked to the desired doneness, about 3-5 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on top of each slice; cover; cook until cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
Serve, garnished with chives.
4 servings.
