Egg, Jarlsberg and Avocado Breakfast Cups

I wanted to find a recipe I could make on Sundays that would create super easy to grab, protein filled breakfasts for my husband, the kids and me. When I was asked to create a breakfast recipe using Jarlsberg USA cheese and Avocados from Mexico, I immediately thought of breakfast cups. These are easy to make and are a healthy breakfast option full of protein to keep your energy up.

Egg, Jarlsberg and Avocado Breakfast Cup Recipe:

jarlsberg avocado breakfast cups #breakfastduos

Ingredients

1 avocado

chopping avocados from mexico

1/2 lb Jarlsberg cheese, shredded

6 eggs

Phyllo dough sheets – I used 4.  I think to make life even easier you could grab some shells already baked.

pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350

Directions:

Shred cheese, pit your avocado and chop it up finely.  (I love a non stick knife for avocados).

Crack 6 eggs into a mixing bowl, add ground pepper to taste, whisk briskly, then add your avocado.

Lightly grease your muffin pan, then put phyllo sheets into each muffin cup- I cut to fit.  Put about 2 tbsp of egg/ avocado mixture into each cup. Sprinkle with the shredded Jarlsberg.  Bake the breakfast cups about 20  minutes at 350.

    This sounds like an interesting recipe to tr out – I need to find different ways to how to incorporate avocado.

  3. cassandra says

    This looks amazing. I am such a huge fan of avocados and use them regularly. This is a recipe I am just going to have to try out.

  5. Terri S. says

    I forgot all about how useful phyllo dough is to make healthy dishes. Thanks for your recipe. It sounds delicious.

  8. Jamie Brigham says

    I definitely wouldn’t like this recipe as I do not like avocado’s or really anything in the recipe except eggs. I wish I did like more green veggies and more of the up and coming vegetables. I am sure if I liked Avocado’s I would like this… good job btw!

  10. Marti Parks says

    I’m a little unsure about this recipe, but my friend thinks it sounds delicious and definitely wants to make it.

  11. Robin Wilson says

    I see a Good Cook knife in the pic! :o) I think my hubby and son would love this recipe, they love avocados! Would make a great light dinner as well.

  12. Joyce Raymond says

    The recipe looks yummy, but I don’t know if I like Avocado. I think I tried it when I was young and didn’t like it, but my taste buds have definitely gotten more sophisticated over the years. I may have to try this recipe. Thanks

  15. Bella Taul says

    I read this recipe out loud to my fiance who also thinks it sounds delicious! Thanks!

  16. Cassie says

    definitely an interesting brunch idea. I’d like to try it but switch up the ingredients a little bit.

  17. Darlene Jones-Nelson says

    Sounds good and looks good but what kind of cheese is that? I have never heard of it at all and I am from Wisconsin.

  18. Debbie Ellis says

    Sounds like a good one to me. I would love to try the Jarlsberg cheese. Never had it. But I love cheese.

  19. lisa says

    This recipe sounds good. I’m not sure if I like avocado or not. Might be a good way to find out.

  25. jules p says

    i have never heard of this cheese. but it and these sound like they would be yummy. and easy too!

  28. Christy Cummins says

    I pinned this recipe to try later. I’ve not always been a fan of avocados, but I am trying to find new ways to try them.

  32. Raine says

    I love avocado and my mom recently got me hooked on Jarlsberg-I hadn’t heard of before. This is a recipe I’m trying as soon as possible-thank you so much-I’m starving now but it’s 2;30 in the morning 🙁 Ugh lol

  33. Georgia Beckman says

    I have never tried Jarlsberg but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE avocados so I’m going to try this recipe. Thanks for sharing.

  34. AprilShowers says

    This recipe is super easy and it looks amazing and easy to eat too. I love finger foods, and so do the kids. I’m going to have to try this, maybe tomorrow morning. Yum!

  38. Melissa S says

    Mmmm! These sound wonderful, I am going to pin this and make them Sunday. I would make them tomorrow but I have everything but the cheese.

  39. Priscilla Benavides says

    I rarely wake up early enough to cook breakfast but when I do cook breakfast I love to go out and this recipe is the perfect Sunday morning breakfast!

  41. The Duo Dishes says

    Love that you’re going to use that avocado pit to grow your own. Hope it works out! Cute little breakfast cups.

    • queenb says

      We are waiting for them to sprout still- I think it said 3 weeks. Have you done them?

  42. jamie braun says

    you know, Ive never had an avocado! they look great this way! maybe i’ll try them now

  44. Annmarie W. says

    Those look delicious! I’m always looking for new ways to use avocado, which I absolutely love!

  45. Becca says

    These look delicious! I always love recipes that only include ingredients I like. Normally I am editing them all!

  46. Margot C says

    These look lovely, you could serve them at a ladies lunch with salads couldn’t you! I am an absolute fool for the combination of Jarlsberg and avocado (which I thought was my own innovation); they are wise to promote it!

  47. Blessie Nelson says

    I love Jarlsberg cheese! I hardly see anyone use Scandinavia cheese in US! So happy that you do!

  49. Hannah Pitts says

    It looks sooo yummy! I like avocados and I imagine this is a very rich and tasty recipe!
    I have never heard of Jarlsberg cheese before though.

  50. Daraya says

    Mmm! I’m not much on avocados but the cups look so yummy I might just have to try them! 🙂

  51. Nicole Becker says

    OMG!! These look amazing!!! I have never eaten avocado before but I am willing to try!!

  52. Anne says

    What a clever way to use an avocado! I wouldn’t have thought of this. Thanks for the recipe.

  53. Amy Tong says

    These Egg, Jarlsberg and Avocado Breakfast Cups are so adorable. I know they must taste wonderful as well because they got all my favorite ingredients packed all in one. 🙂 Plus, everything taste better in small packages. 😉

  54. Maria Iemma says

    These look easy to make and yummy, and avocado has all the healthy fats — healthy too!

  55. Daily Woman (Lacey) says

    I like Avocado but I have never tried using them with cheese. I have use them on salad or tacos but thats it. I am excited to try this recipe.

  56. Susan Broughton says

    I’m not very fond of Avocados. I don’t think they very much taste to them. I wonder if this wouldn’t give them some taste. I might try this to see if it could make me like avocados better

  59. Mary D says

    For some reason I’m really wary of avocado and egg together, but those look REALLY good.

  65. Carrie Phelps says

    I would have never thought to put avocado with eggs! I love Jarlsberg cheese, it’s such a strong fragrant cheese!

  66. Amanda Alvarado says

    We love avocados! We’ve never tried them with eggs before though! Might have to give it try this weekend!

  69. Donna Cheatle says

    Oh wow, those look and sound divine! I’ll definitely be giving these a try

  73. Wendy Price says

    That sounds so good. To be honest the only avacado food I have eaten is guacamole.

  75. Vicki Hale says

    I have never heard of this kind of cheese. I have never eaten an Avocado, but these are appealing. Thank you. Vicki

  76. Kayla says

    This looks like a surprisingly healthy breakfast! I love that! I need some’more of those in my life.

  79. Jill A. Collins says

    As soon as I saw avacados I knew I would love this recipe. Giving this one a try!

  80. Angela s says

    I love avocados! I would love this right now! My problem lately is the avocados at the store don’t look so good.

  83. Bobby Tarumi says

    Looks great! Like a power-food sandwich but for breakfast, and in bite-sized form.

  84. Wanda Bergman says

    Two of my favourite foods are eggs and avocados. I know I would like this.

  90. Jennifer Cetoute says

    Looks pretty simple! I don’t think I have ever tried Avocado before, maybe this could be the first recipe i use! Thank you!

  91. MADDIE K says

    Oh yum! I love Avacado and eat it frequently, but I never cook with it. This looks really good.

  93. Ashleigh says

    I’ve honestly never made anything with avocado before! I think I might step out of my comfort zone and try out this recipe! It looks so yummy!

  94. md kennedy says

    Awesome! Four of my favorite foods all wrapped into one little package – I am so making this!

  98. Charlotte says

    These look delicious!! I love Avocado and this is a great way to incorporate it 🙂 Will definitely be trying this recipe!
