3.
Heat the remaining picante sauce in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat until it's hot and bubbling. Spoon the picante sauce over the eggs. Top with the avocado. Serve immediately.
Tip:
The contrast in temperature between the hot eggs and the cool avocado makes this dish spectacular. If you like, you can slice the avocado, squeeze a bit of lemon juice over it to keep it from turning brown, and chill until the eggs are ready.
