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 oz per each avocado half
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and line a small dish with tinfoil.
- Heat the oil in a medium pan over med/high heat.
- Add in the minced garlic and sliced zucchini and sautee 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 med, high heat.
- Once the vinegar boils, turn it down to a simmer (about med/low or low heat – you want the outsides to just be lightly bubbling) and simmer, stiring every once in awhile, until it reduces by half or about 6-8 minutes. You will know it has reduced when it coats the back of the spoon *. Set aside.
- Slice the avocados in half, taking out the seeds. Scoop some more of the center out, making the hole where the seed was nice and large.
- Layer a little bit of cooked zucchini in the bottom of each hole, followed by a little bit of goat cheese, pressing the goat cheese in.
- 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 DEVOUR!
Notes
- * The balsamic sets up a lot once it has cooled, so don’t cook it too long or you will balsamic vinegar toffee once it cools! ** You could probably just mix the goat cheese and zucchini in a bowl and then fill the holes to make it easier as well.
