Bacon, Chicken & Tomato Stuffed Avocado

January 27, 2023 by Nick Quintero 7 Comments

Skip to Recipe Print Recipe

Stuffed avocado. Yes, it's a real thing! Bacon, chicken, and tomato are divine in this protein-packed meal prep! 

You know you can really just add whatever you want bacon and avocado are involved, right? It's going to be good when you start with those two things, right? And now you know you can stuff things other than peppers and potatoes. Truth!

This bacon, chicken, and tomato stuffed avocado recipe makes a great meal prepped lunch or filling snack. It’s a naturally healthy meal prep:  low carb, paleo, and gluten-free.

When it comes to avocado, I could eat it straight every single day and probably not get sick of it. A little salt and pepper on top, or a drizzle of olive oil is awesome with it, too. So, adding all these other ingredients? Well, it's even better, because it's loaded with protein and fiber and healthy fats.

Pro Tip - Avocado and Lime Juice

Benefits of Avocado

As it turns out, the humble avocado makes an excellent vessel for a complete lunch. When I need a quick and easy lunch idea, stuffed avocado is a go-to. It's an ideal companion for a cooler or my lunch bag. The preparation is easy and no additional cooking is required; you can eat it at room temperature. It also happens to be a good source of poly and monounsaturated fats; those are the heart-healthy kinds that most of us can stand to load up on. You can also find fiber, potassium, magnesium, folate, Vitamins C, E, and K, among many other valuable things.

Bacon, Chicken and Tomato Stuffed Avocado Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 2 avocados
  • ⅓ cup grape tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 scallion, sliced
  • ⅓ cup paleo mayo
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

How to Make Stuffed Avocados with Bacon, Chicken, and Tomato

Cook the chicken ahead of time. That's easy, right? And the bacon, too. And then, it's a simple assembly job.

Toss these ingredients in a bowl with the sliced green onions, paleo mayo, grape tomatoes, salt and pepper. Taste, and adjust seasoning if needed. Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and then stuff each half with the filling. So good!

How to Store Stuffed Avocados

You can store the filling of bacon, chicken, scallions, tomato, and mayo in a sealed container in the refrigerator for a day or so and then assemble it right before eating if you like. Or, you can definitely prep them ahead of time. Either way, cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Then, stuff each half to your heart's content!  Keep them in the fridge in an airtight container until you're ready to eat them.

How to Serve Stuffed Avocados

These are best at room temperature or a bit chilled. Either work. We like to eat them as is, for a snack or a light lunch. Or you can certainly serve them alongside a big green salad or a nice bowl of soup if you're looking to round out the offerings and make a meal out of it.

We also like stuffed avocados with a bit of homemade ranch drizzled on top. Trust us. It's so worth it. Or, better yet, skip the paleo mayo altogether and toss the ingredients in homemade ranch dressing!

Substitutions and Alterations

We think this is pretty perfect the way it is. But feel free to skip the scallion and use red onion, finely chopped, if desired. And you can use any kind of tomato, really. Real bacon is always the best, in our book, but if you have turkey bacon, by all means use that. Waste not, want not!

Tip

A squeeze of lime over the top of each half is never a bad idea!

    I eat an avocado everyday, and never think to stuff it. I am going to upgrade with this tomorrow!

      Hi Amanda - Unfortunately we did not calculate the macros for this as it was a recipe submission. You can easily get the breakdown by inputting the ingredients into your food tracker. Also to note, the macros on this would vary (and possibly significantly) depending on the size of your avocado.

    What can you substitute for avocado for those that don't like them. Thanks

      The avocado is the healthy fat and the serving vessel... you could easily use purple cabbage to serve the bacon, chicken, tomato mixtures in. Try adding some red walnuts to add a little healthy fat.

      You could try it with Greek Yogurt... we haven't subbed the mayo out yet, but give that a try and let us know how it turns out.
