3. Transfer to a wire rack and keep warm in a preheated 250 degree F oven, while you continue to make the rest.
4. Scoop out the avocado and place it in a medium bowl. Using a fork, mash together with the lime juice, salt, pepper, and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes.
5. To assemble the waffles, top each with a bit of the mashed avocado, a fried egg, and sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes, red onion, feta and parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy.
