Chicken Stuffed Baked Avocados

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Avocados from Mexico for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Oooh yummy! I have never baked avocados before, and I am so excited about this recipe. I can honestly say I have thought about baking avocados until I was offered this post about Avocados from Mexico's Better Baking Sweepstakes. I have always LOVED avocados, and I have used them as toppings on tacos, or to make guacamole, but I have never gotten really creative and baked them until now.

Did you know you can even replace butter or oil in a recipe with equal parts of pureed avocado?

Your baked goods will come out richer, healthier, and more moist. When I thought about baking I was imaging baking the whole avocado. I will definitely have to try my cookies and cakes with avocados instead of butter or oil next.

I searched the internet to find avocado baking recipes, and surprisingly they were really hard to find. I did find a clever recipe for seafood stuffed avocados that gave me this idea. It reminds me of a taco without the shell. These would be delicious served with tortilla chips as well. I wish I had thought of that before I devoured these little babies with a spoon!
