Avocado Deviled Eggs

Avocado Deviled Eggs || Heather's Dish

It started off simple enough.  Perfectly hard-boiled eggs (this method is fool-proof!).  The realization that I haven’t yet had a deviled egg this year.

 

See?  Simple.

 

And then I discovered the perfectly ripe half of an avocado in the fridge (yes, the fridge).

 

Here’s the deal: I don’t really like mayonnaise, and while I typically don’t use a lot in my deviled eggs anyway I figured any excuse to not use it is good enough for me!

Now I realize that green-ish eggs are probably not all that appetizing because, well, they’re green BUT I promise they’re delicious!  I may have added a little bit of chili powder and paprika to make ’em spicy and fabulous, and it was kind of like guacamole in an egg white cup.

 

YES.  Jump on this train!

Avocado Deviled Eggs || Heather's Dish

AVOCADO DEVILED EGGS

Makes 6 egg halves

  • 3 whole hard-boiled large eggs (this method works perfectly every time)
  • 1/2 medium ripe avocado
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder (more if you want more spice)
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper

Cut the eggs in half and move the yolks to a small plate. Mash the egg yolks and avocado together until smooth.  Stir in the mustard, chili powder, paprika, salt and pepper.  Evenly distribute the mixture between the egg white halves and sprinkle with more paprika if necessary!

      Thanks Mark – I went in and re-entered the URL, but if it’s still not working it should be: https://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/cooking-tips-techniques/cooking/hard-boil-egg-00000000002333/index.html. I hope that works!

    I want to make these for Easter Sunday supper… Can I make them on Saturday afternoon? Will the avocado go dark if I make them ahead?

    Thanks !

    Ilene….

      Hey Ilene! Since there’s any acid in them I would say they’ll probably brown if you make them completely ahead of time. That being said, if you mash the yolks with all the other ingredients and then mash the avocado in right before you serve them that should work!

      Hope that helps 🙂

    Also, this is a brilliant idea!

      It’s true, once the eggs are boiled it’s just a few minutes of work and then you’re done!

    It’s like Green Eggs and Ham! I usually make a big mixed salad and serve it with hard-boiled eggs and either guacamole or avocado so this is perfect! I think avocado and egg are a perfect pair!

    I seriously LOVE using avocado in my deviled eggs. I added jalapeno and cilantro to mine, so they are even darker green. Definitely have to tell your mind that they aren’t rotten or something. haha 🙂

      Oh, I love the jalapeno/cilantro idea!!! I don’t mind the green, although my husband might gag a little if he saw them 😉
