Chef’s Pro Tips

Choose slightly underripe avocados for easy scooping.
For a lighter finish, skip broil and bake until just melted.
Add a squeeze of lime to brighten flavor if desired.
Crisp bacon yields more texture; crumble just before serving.

Serving Suggestions

Pair with a simple side salad or brushed garlic mushrooms for a complete plate; offer hot sauce on the side for extra zing.

Storage Instructions

Store leftover boats in an airtight container in the fridge up to 1 day; reheat gently to prevent avocado from drying.
