My family and I had this delicious scramble for dinner the other day. I made this dish because I had some extra avocados, most of which were ripe and ready to use. My family loves Canadian back bacon so I used that in placed of the cooked ham. I had to pan-fry the back bacon first, let them cool for a bit and then sliced them in cubes. I was glad that I had Colby-Monterey Jack cheese in my fridge. It is my husband’s favorite cheese and we always buy them in whenever we get the chance. You can have this simple and versatile dish at any time of the day. It is filling and satisfying. Enjoy!

Never tried avocado with scrambled eggs before, definitely something that I need to try. Looks and sounds delicious!
