Baked California Avocado With Cheese

Cheese Filling:

1. Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until needed.

3. Stuff each center with ¼ cup of the Cheese Filling.
4. Bake for 10-12 minutes until cheese is melted and avocado is just warm.
5. Place two halves on each plate and drizzle each with some of the Chianti Glaze. Serve.
