Avocado with rocket and eggs

Saturday you are supposed to relax, meet your friends and have fun. You can do all of them at the same time, unless you end up spending too much time preparing something to eat for your guests. So, here is a quick recipe for a light and healthy snack that is also the perfect complement to a glass of chilled white wine: Avocado con rucola

Ingredients for four people:
- two avocados
- two eggs
- two slices of roasted pickled pepperoni
- basil
- lemon
- 80 grams of extra-virgin olive oil
- salt and pepper

Preparation:
Cut the avocados in half and remove the pit. Remove the flesh, making sure you leave a thin layer, and cut it into small dices.

Put the pepperoni, oil, salt, some lemon juice and basil leaves into a food processor and mix until it becomes and homogenous sauce.

Boil the eggs until they are hard and slice them.

Fill the half avocados with chopped rocket, the diced flesh of the avocados and the sliced eggs. Pour the sauce and sprinkle with freshly ground pepper.

And remember... cooking is fun...
