Guacamole Deviled Eggs make a healthy appetizer made with hard boiled eggs filled with mashed avocado, cilantro and lime juice.
Guacamole Deviled Eggs
My mom adds hard boiled eggs to her guacamole recipe, so I thought why not add guacamole to hard boiled eggs? The results are lovely, and since I was testing them out for the blog, I actually enjoyed them for lunch. Of course, if you wish you can also stick with this classic Deviled Eggs recipe.
This is a fun, “clean” deviled egg recipe perfect to eat as a snack or appetizer. Typically deviled eggs are made with mayonnaise, mustard and dijon mustard, so how do you make them without mayonnaise? Instead this healthier deviled egg recipe version is filled with avocado guacamole. You can prep the eggs ahead by boiling them (see how with this perfect hard boiled egg recipe here) or make Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs, then cut the eggs in half lengthwise until you’re ready to fill them. To avoid browning, make the guacamole just before you’re ready to serve.
